This past Saturday, RFGH Community Health hosted a drive-thru Back to School Car Seat Check Event. The event was visited by many local families who met with our Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians and had their child’s car seat checked. Each child who attended the event was able to pick out a backpack filled with school supplies for the upcoming school year.

We would like to thank the Maine Bureau of Highway Safety for their support in this event and Maine Needs for the very generous donation of backpacks. Remaining backpacks will be distributed to local schools for the upcoming school year.
