Kohl's Cares Car Seat Check Program
The Kohl's Cares for Kids Program, which raises funds
for children's health and educational opportunities has created
the Kohl's Cares Car Seat Check Program at Rhode Island Hospital.
The program provides education on car seat safety and car/booster
seat inspections.
How the Program Can Help You
With the Kohl's Cares Car Seat Check Program, certified child passenger
safety technicians from the Injury Prevention Center can help teach
parents how to properly install safety seats in their cars. In addition,
low-income families may qualify to participate in an educational workshop prior to their car seat check. When necessary, these families may receive a car/booster
seat free of charge.
