Course Description: Step into action at Kiwanis Park in your EMS gear for a cause that truly matters. The Arizona Trauma Association invites you to participate in our annual Tackle Trauma 5K Race and Fundraiser, where every stride you take helps save lives and raise awareness about trauma.

We believe in providing the best care for injured patients through an inclusive and integrated trauma system. Your participation in our annual fundraiser fuels injury prevention, education, and research efforts to reduce fatalities in our great state.
Raise Your Voice, Raise Funds
Join us, and let's spread the word about these crucial issues. By participating, you're not just running a race; you're running toward a future with fewer traumatic injuries. Your support helps raise money for trauma education and makes a difference in Arizona.
