Sparrow Clinton Hospital provides on-site car seat fitting stations in cooperation with Safe Kids – Clinton County.
This program offers free car/booster seats and replacement of damaged or recalled car seats for low income families.
Recipients must be residents of Clinton County. For other recipients, a donation of $30 per seat is encouraged.
This month car seat fittings will take place during the CASA Community Thank You Event at the Uncle John’s Cider Mill in St. Johns on September 24. The car seat fitting station will be open from 4 to 7 p.m.
The next fitting station is scheduled Oct. 6 from 4 to 6p.m. at Beacon of Hope in St. Johns.
Children or infants using the seats must be present during the installation to ensure a proper fit. Seats must be installed in the vehicle in which the children will regularly travel. Plan to spend at least 30 minutes per seat installation.
No appointment is necessary.
