Graham County Department of Public Health offers car seats to families with low incomes. We provide convertible car seats and forward facing booster seats. The costs of the car seats are $10.00 and $5.00 for boosters. Car seat classes are held on the third Wednesday of every month. We provide two certified car seat technicians who are over the program and can also check car seats for anyone in the community free of charge. To make an appointment for the car seat class or to have your car seat checked to make sure it is installed correctly, please call 479-7900 ext. 2615.
