Child passenger safety education should reach everyone who travels with a child in the car. Car seat checks are a great tool to provide outreach in this regard however, they often do not influence hard to reach audiences? Learn about unique and creative approaches used to reach refugee families, child transporters, and tribal communities. Identify how to establish new partnerships, utilize virtual tools, training videos, pre and post tests, online polls, and educational materials in family’s native language to assist in providing meaningful outreach. (Meets Community Education requirement.)
