Lewis and Clark Public Health: National Child Passenger Safety Week

0Comments


Car crashes are a leading cause of death for children. On average, two children under 13 were killed and an estimated 374 were injured every day in 2019 while riding in cars, SUVs, pickups, and vans.

National Child Passenger Safety Week is observed the third week of September as part of Baby Safety Month in the United States. The goal of Child Passenger Safety Week is to make sure every child is in the correct child safety seat, that the seats are properly installed and used, and that seats are registered with their manufacturers to ensure parents and caregivers receive important safety updates or recalls.
