Halloween is right around the corner!

While you are out trick-or-treating, remember to keep your children safe when traveling in a vehicle whether they are traveling with family or friends!

Prepare for Halloween travel by getting your child's car seat checked by a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician at Columbia County Public Health. We will help make sure that your child's car seat is safely secured in your vehicle. We also provide FREE car seats based on eligibility.
