Abstract
This step-by-step guide is directed toward the rural health professional or community leader who is interested in organizing a community team to plan and implement a high-profile 30-day campaign to increase seat belt use. The manual is divided into 9 chapters and 5 appendices. The body of the document provides guidance on following the eight-step Partners for Rural Traffic Safety process for planning, implementing, and evaluating the 30-day campaign. The appendices provide a list of resources, contact information, and an overhead slide presentation with speakers' notes. A disk with a PowerPoint slide presentation (same as the overheads) is also included. (Author/publisher)
