Trauma Program Contact List

Traumacomm: The Trauma Program created the list service to enhance communication with Florida's residents and our state and federal stakeholders and partners. Subscribers to the list service receive automatic e-mails each week that consist of current state events, news, notices, trainings, conferences, best practices, and updates from the Trauma Program and the Florida trauma system, as well as national news related to trauma. The service allows subscribers to submit news items, notices, articles, etc., for posting in the weekly e-mails. To subscribe to this weekly update, visit: http://ww7.doh.state.fl.us/mailman/listinfo/office_of_trauma.
