Fulton County Safe Communities was created in 2012 through the Ohio Transportation Office of Safety grant to establish a partnership of individuals from law enforcement, local governments, schools, businesses, the health department, and community organizations, creating awareness and prevention of death and injuries caused by traffic crashes. Safe Communities works together with the community to promote traffic safety and program goals through activities including fatal crash reviews, statistical analysis, and increasing traffic safety countermeasures.
Safe Communities works to reduce the number of traffic related deaths and injuries in Fulton County through education and enforcement. The objectives are to increase awareness of four major safety issues: impaired driving, distracted driving, seat belt usage, and motorcycle safety. The coalition also participates in National Mobilizations including Click it or Ticket and Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over.
