Child Safety

All kids deserve a safe and nurturing upbringing. Child safety encompasses physical safety, but also safety in the home and in the neighborhood. In an effort to make sure that all children have the opportunity to thrive in a safe environment, WCCF has been involved in a variety of measures, from ensuring that kids are riding in proper carseats to making sure that newborn parents and caretakers of babies are educated in the dangers of shaken baby syndrome. We regularly support measures to protect kids from gun violence and monitor legislation governing child welfare issues. This project is largely shaped by the legislation introduced in any given session which affects kids and their safe and healthy development.
