Parents for Window Blind Safety™

 

 

We are a 501(C) (3) grass roots, non-profit organization established in November 2002 to act as a support group and to educate parents, law enforcement, state officials, physicians, and the media on the hazards of corded window treatments and to provide a source of current statistical information. Most Americans are not aware of the 8 ways a child can strangle on a window blind, mini blind or Venetian blinds.

Our research has revealed that a child dies every 2 weeks from strangulation on corded window treatments, the oldest being 12 years of age. These corded window treatments include, window blinds, Mini blinds, Venetian blinds, roman shades, cellular shades, corded roll up shades and vertical blinds.

We support families that are affected by this epidemic.
