Members like you help keep kids safe through initiatives including School Safety Patrols, child car seat training and our many donation programs. This year, in partnership with United Way, we'll provide another 1,000 car seats for British Columbians in need, including newly arrived refugees, who may otherwise go without safe transport. And, this spring, we'll launch an exciting new program focused on safe community play spaces for children. Stay tuned.
