The goal of the Leon County EMS Child Passenger Safety Seat Program is to educate citizens on the importance of properly securing all children in child safety seats, boosters or seat belts - every trip, every time. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), child safety seats and boosters offer the best protection for children during a crash. If you are considering purchasing a car, Cars.com offers extensive insight on models and their ranking for cars seats. Learn more here.
In the past 30 years, almost 9,000 lives have been saved by the use of child restraints. Leon County EMS has certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians on staff to assist the public with this. We host several check point events around the county each year where we offer training and advice to parents. Check back to this site regularly to view any up coming events. Please call 850-606-2100 for more information or to schedule your appointment.
