The Danville Life Saving Crew has recently partnered with the Virginia Department of Health and Community Healthcare Workers to not only implement the program, but also to complete proper car and safety seat installation training in hopes of preventing our community’s youngest citizens from injury or death in the event of a motor vehicle accident. This resource has been underutilized in our area for a long period of time. Through the work of the Community Liaison, Heather Spencer, and Johnny Mills with the Danville Life Saving Crew, the program now has a permanent home in Danville. With the help of this program and its trained workers, parents will be more aware and better empowered when it comes to their children’s safety while on the road. They will not only be taught proper safety seat installation, but important skills that will grow with the child, such as how to make adjustments to fit and position.
