Burn Prevention Network

The Burn Prevention Network (BPN) is a Pennsylvania statewide 501(c) 3 non-profit. BPN has a nearly 40-year history of successful program and service delivery and is one of the most respected burn non-profits in the U.S. Our mission is to reduce the risk of burns and empower burn survivors and their families. The Burn Prevention Network educates, supports, advocates, and empowers. We teach those who are most vulnerable for risk of burns how to protect themselves and others from injury by giving them the knowledge and tools they need to be safe. We support burn survivors and their families as they continue to deal with their trauma and then empower them as they adjust to a new reality. While our reach extends throughout Pennsylvania, our focus is on those populations most at-risk for burn injuries. We offer education for new parents, children, and older adults; provide support services for survivors and their families; and use traditional and social media to promote safe practices and burn reduction. We are effective because of the nature, extent, and quality of our partnerships with regional burn centers and other health, public safety, and community-based organizations. What sets us apart are the availability and quality of our programs, our long-standing relationships, our demonstrated expertise, and the commitment and dedication of our board and staff. We honor our past by staying true to our mission. We will ensure our future by having a solid financial plan and diversified revenue streams, a broad network of partners who will support our work, an engaged board, and a staff who passionately believe in what we do.
