Car crashes are the leading cause of death for adolescents. Project Ignition knows that youth leadership is a critical component to effectively addressing this staggering statistic, changing teen driving behaviors and saving lives.
“In partnership with State Farm, we are amazed by the students leading these Project Ignition campaigns. These youth are well informed and uniquely positioned to offer a critical voice to help influence their peers’ risky driving behaviors. The fact that youth work with teachers to link the campaigns to their academic coursework, gives us confidence that this program strengthens schools as it also helps to save young lives,” said Kelita Svoboda Bak, NYLC CEO.
