Child Safety Seat Inspections - Wednesday, February 27, 2008

The Grafton Police Department is pleased to announce that three police officers have recently received national certification as Child Passenger Safety (CPS) Technicians.  Officer James Crosby, Officer Daniel Wenc and Officer Liam O'Rourke recently completed the thirty-two hour certification program administered by the Municipal Police Institute on behalf of Safe-Kids Worldwide.

Accidental childhood injuries remain one of leading causes of death in children age fourteen and under.  The proper selection and installation of a child restraint can greatly reduce the chance of injury in a crash.

The role of a CPS Technician is to assist parents and caregivers to install various child restraints safely.  Anyone interested in utilizing the Grafton Police Department CPS Program should contact the CPS Program voice mailbox at 508-839-2858 ext 420 for more information or to schedule an appointment.
