Safe Kids Middlesex County - RWJ Injury Prevention Program

Since that time we have seen significant growth that includes contributions from numerous community partners. In 2001 we joined the National Safe Kids Campaign and

became the Safe Kids of Middlesex County chapter. Due to the efforts of our members and the variety of activities and services provided through our organization, we were granted coalition status in September of 2003.

Parents, caregivers, and kids are familiar with the "You Must Be This Tall to Ride" signs used for rollercoasters and other rides. We know that height and weight requirements are important to keep children safe. You wouldn't rush to buckle your child into a ride that can't properly protect them. Similarly, there is no need to rush on to the next car seat. Use your current car seat until your child reaches the maximum weight or height limit listed on the label. Each seat is designed for maximum safety at specific weights, heights and ages.
