Window Safety Week
Every year for the first full week of April is “Window Safety Week”. The NSC and the Window Safety Task Force established Window Safety Week in 1997 to heighten awareness of the actions homeowners can take to establish window safety and fall prevention as a year-round safety priority.
Window Safety Week, the first full week in April, coincides with the arrival of spring, when people naturally want to open the windows and let in fresh air. The goal of this observance is twofold: for families to understand the role of windows in escaping a fire or other emergency and to learn how to safeguard against window falls.
Share the kids’ activity book and infographic with family members so they are aware of their role in window safety.
Window Safety Week is in April, but we encourage you to practice window safety year-round. Lives depend on it.
