Monroe County Sheriffs Office Child Restraint Highway Safety Grant Statement of the Problem Monroe County is in a unique situation as it is made up primarily of a chain of 43 islands served by a single highway. U.S. JIighway 1, also known as State Road 5 runs from the northern tip of Key Largo all the way to the Southernmost Point in Key West, a total of 113 miles. It is the only roadway giving access to coveted destinations such as Key Largo, Islamorada, Marathon, and ultimately Key West. We have a year round population of 85,000 but support a total yearly population, due to tourism, of over 2.5 million. Many of our visitors come by motorized vehicles. With the increasing number of vehicles on our roadways, combined with the fact that many of the drivers are from out of state and even out of the country, the potential of vehicular crashes are enhanced tremendously and the need for extra caution and child safety is paramount In 1997, we recorded 1,250 crashes resulting in 1,270 injuries and 17 fatalities. Further analysis has shown 1999 the number of crashes in Monroe County bas steadily risen to 1,363 with 1,220 injuries and 25 fatalities. Vehicular Accidents in Monroe County 1995-1999 Year Crashes Injuries Fatalities . 1995 1,123 1,191 22 1996 1,185 1,290 21 1997 1,250 1,270 17 1998 1,275 1,268 27 1999 1,363 ...1,220 25 -- According to the 1997 Childhood and Adolescent Injury Fatalities Facts, Children and adolescents are at particular risk for unintentional injuries. According to the Children's Safety Network, child safety seats use prevented more than 180 deaths and 70,000 injuries in 1991, in Florida. If all occupants age 0 to 4 were restrained, another 200 deaths and 20,000 injuries could be prevented annually. OL FORM 500-065-01 SAFETY OGe . 06199 Proposed Solution The Monroe County Sheriff's Office have joined the Rural Health Network of Monroe County and Health Start Nurses in an effort to address the need of economically disadvantaged families in Monroe County who need car safety seats to protect their young children. Together we have developed a program that works to meet the need of car safety seats for infants and young children. We are proud of our program and the comprehensive way it addresses this issue. The Monroe County Sheriffs Office provides funding and support. The Rural Health Network of Monroe County, Fl., Inc. has... Developed storage for the seats in three areas of the Florida Keys, Placed routine orders for car seats, Expanded the safety seats program from infant to include toddler, and Booster seats for four and five year oIds, 1l\I~~inj1l1ly.lAG~IlU:K~X Providing the latest in safety seats. Local EMS, Fire Department personnel and loca1law enforCement ensure families at risk, not only receive the safety seats they need, but they assist the family in correctly installing the seats. The Monroe County School provides a child safety seat program and certification for the proper use of the seats. A recent addition to the car seat safety program for Monroe County is a special allocation of funds to purchase "special needs" car safety seats. Thanks to the networking developed with the Department of Children and Families: Developmental Services, special needs children are and will be accommodated. Obiectives 1. To increase the number of properly installed child restraint seats by 100/0 2. To increase the overall usage of restraint seats by 10% 3. To increase the availability of special needs equipment for the purpose of safely transporting children with special needs. Evaluation The Monroe County Sheriff's Office will evaluate the overall success of the project based on the number of citations issued for non-compliance with F.SS.316.613 and crash data within Monroe County. .3 OGC . 06199 Timetable for Milestones Milestones 1 st Quarter 2nd Quarter 3rd Quarter 4th Quarter OCT NOV DEC JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP Order seats and supplies I X X X Coordinate distribution of X X X seats through Healthy Start Nursing program and Heathy Families-Monroe, and all the fire stations through- out the Florida Keys.
