Car Seat Program
The Albany Area Child Passenger Safety Program, in partnership with the Albany Firefighters Community Assistance Fund (AFFCAF), has been awarded a grant from the Oregon Department of Transportation to provide low cost seats to income eligible families residing within the city of Albany. If your child is in need of a car seat, a referral may be obtained from Love, Inc, or from WIC for families who are currently eligible for and receiving WIC benefits.
Car Seat Program Guidelines
- One seat per child.
- There is a $30.00 co-pay per seat which must be paid in cash at the time the seat is received.
- Seats are distributed only by appointment.
- The child receiving the seat must be present; seats are not distributed for unborn babies.
- Properly fitting seats will be distributed; the program cannot provide infant only seats. Convertible car seats are well suited for small babies throughout the toddler & preschool years.
- The vehicle in which the child travels must be brought to the seat check event.
- Caregivers will be taught to correctly install and use the car seat.
