Safe Kids Amador Partners is a coalition of community members and agencies that strive to protect children and youth from injury and harm by working in the following areas: car seat safety, pedestrian safety, bicycle safety and helmet use, water safety and drowning prevention, and other child injury prevention measures.  Partnering agencies include First 5 Amador, The Child Abuse Prevention Council, CHP, Jackson Police Department, AAA, Amador County Recreation Agency, Head Start/Early Head Start, Nexus Youth and Family Services, and the Amador County Unified School District.  The Safe Kids Amador Partners Coalition is organized and led by the Amador County Public Health Department.

Amador County Public Health provides education to the community about proper installation and use of car seats and booster seats.  In addition to education, staff at Amador County Public Health may provide a free or reduced-price car seat to families who have a financial need.  Proof of financial need may be required to obtain a free or reduced-price car seat.  Availability of car seats/booster seats varies and depends on funding and/or grants.  Please call Amador County Public Health for more information at (209) 223-6407.
