Classes and Community

Our commitment to the well-being of children goes beyond our walls. We connect with kids, their families and their communities by advocating for child health, offering classes on topics such as potty training and babysitting, and providing low-cost safety and injury-prevention gear.

  • Toddlers can easily reach medications kept in a purse or cleaning products lying around the house. Help prevent poisonings in your own home.

  • Car crashes kill more children than any other kind of injury. Use size-appropriate booster seats to keep kids safer on the road.

  • Today, 15% of kids in the U.S. are overweight — and face health problems usually only seen in adults. We’re working to stop this dangerous trend.
