Safe Start Hosts Car Seat Events at GEICO

Once again our Safe Start program hosted a series of car seat events at GEICO head quarters to show parents and guardians how to properly install car seats. And once again, GEICO generously supported the program with an incredible $20,000. Thank you GEICO!

National statistics show that 75% of car seats are improperly installed. But our Safe Start program typically sees 90% of car seats are improperly installed on Long Island. Don't let yours be one of them! Learn more about Safe Start and how to book an appointment here.
