Keeping children safe on the road starts with making sure their car seat is installed and used correctly. The Gurnee Police Department offers free child safety seat assistance to parents, grandparents, caregivers and anyone transporting a child.
Families may stop by the Police Department to request help checking and installing a child safety seat. An officer will provide one-on-one guidance, answer questions and help you better understand how to safely secure your child in the vehicle.
This service is available at no cost and is based on the availability of qualified officers on duty. Because officers may be responding to calls or other community needs, immediate assistance cannot always be guaranteed.
