Location: Exposition Park and other areas throughout Los Angeles

The Harbor-UCLA/REI Childhood Injury Prevention Center (CIPC) has partnered with the David Niven Jr.'s See A Child, Save a Child, Inc. (seeachildsaveachild.com) to coordinate a Child Safety Week in Los Angeles. Mr. Niven recently succeeded in having this week proclaimed in the City of Los Angeles. The CIPC is currently working on having it proclaimed in the County of Los Angeles and the State of California. Together, we have formed a coalition of California based organizations dedicated to the safety of children and their families. This year, these organizations will participate in the City of Los Angeles' KTLA Kids Day L.A. at Exposition Park. At this festival these groups will be presenting families throughout Los Angeles with important education, tools and resources for making their lives safer. Throughout the week following this day event, smaller activities will take place throughout the City and County of Los Angeles.
