Four out of five car seats are installed and/or used wrong.
Could your child's be one of them? Make sure it's not. Make an
appointment today for a free car seat safety check, sponsored by Texas
Children's Childhood Injury Prevention Center and the Greater Houston
Coalition for SAFE KIDS. Visit one of several locations in the
greater Houston area today!
It's best to bring your
children so we can ensure the seats are appropriate and fit them properly. Our
inspectors
take about 20 minutes teaching parents how to install their children's car seat correctly.
For more
information about upcoming car-seat safety checks, call Mari
Hodges
at
832-828-1314.
SAFE KIDS Greater Houston Network of Inspection

Car seat inspections are available by appointment at several sites around
the Houston area, which are listed below. To allow more people to be served, please let the station
where your appointment is scheduled know if you must cancel or reschedule.
Please be on time for your appointment.
