For transportation/occupant safety information in addition to the website of

Oregon's Public Health Services, go to:

Safety Advantage (Transportation Safety videos, including Spanish videos)

http://www.safetycity.com/17000a.htm

cinturon " http://www.nlci.org/common/index.htm

Here is a good website for transportation safety for babies and children.

Posters are in Spanish & English. This is basically practical information.

Where can I find information and materials in both English and Spanish that

are targeted at motor vehicle safety among migrant families? I am

especially interested in programs that deal with unrestrained children -

including seat belts, child car seats, and booster seats. I am also hoping

to find research and/or educational materials that address general

attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors of migrant families from Mexico about

motor vehicle safety. Any information about current projects and programs

would also be very helpful. Thank you for any help that you can provide.
