From curious kids to our wise older adults, it was inspiring to see so many generations coming together to learn how to protect their homes. 🏡✨

Accidental poisoning can happen to anyone, but after seeing the amazing turnout at our prevention booth, we know our community is safer today than it was yesterday!

💡 Quick takeaways from our booth:

Always keep the Poison Control number saved in your phone.

Keep medicines in their original containers with clear labels.

Medicines are never "candy"—make sure kids know the difference!

We are so proud to serve a community that cares about safety and well-being. Let’s keep sharing this knowledge with our neighbors! 👇
