This paper presents the results of a research project that examined an injury prevention program administered in public housing facilities. This study brought together university researchers, public housing administrators, and insurance company personnel to focus on strategies aimed at increasing the safety of public housing residents. Regression analyses demonstrated that implementation of one injury prevention standard was statistically significant in terms of reducing the number of injury-related insurance claims. The article includes suggestions for program improvement, as well as a series of reflections on the lack of notable impact for most of the standards implemented
