Mobile Safety Labs
Meeting families where they are, near and far
We believe that every child deserves to be safe, wherever they live. Our Mobile Safety Labs allow us to reach families in communities that have limited access to child passenger safety education and resources.
Two locations, one goal
Austin, TX

Austin-Travis County EMS serves vulnerable communities that are in need of car seat help. - Who we help
These communities include low-income housing apartment complexes, mobile home parks, and areas with a high concentration of refugees. - The lab
The Texas-based Mobile Safety Lab is a state-of-the-art classroom on wheels, towed by a Toyota Tundra, outfitted with training seats for hands-on child passenger safety instruction and practice. Video streaming devices offer additional educational opportunities, all in a controlled environment.
