Families enjoying Charlie Clark Nissan’s Fall Festival, also had an opportunity to learn about keeping their children safe on the road. University Medical Center Foundation of El Paso brought the El Paso Health Car Seat Safety Program to the celebration, raising awareness about child passenger safety and the free resources available to local families.

The festival provided a welcoming setting to connect with parents and caregivers, introduce the program, and encourage families to take an active role in proper car seat use. By bringing safety education into community events, the UMC Foundation helps more families learn where to turn for guidance and support.

Facilitated by the UMC Foundation of El Paso, the El Paso Health Car Seat Safety Program offers free monthly events where certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians help families make sure their children are riding safely. Through car seat inspections, installation instruction, and hands-on education, parents and caregivers gain practical tools they can use every day.

The program’s services include:

• Car seat inspections and installation instruction to help families understand proper seat use.
• Child passenger safety education for parents and caregivers.
• Resources and support to address families’ car seat safety needs.
• A Special Needs Car Seat Loaner Program for children who need additional support to travel safely.

The UMC Foundation thanks Charlie Clark Nissan for welcoming the program to its Fall Festival and helping connect the community with valuable child passenger safety resources.
