Both the Sheriff department and the Women’s club teamed up to tell the Parish about the campaign and make them aware. The club saw a very important problem and wanted to bring it to life and let everyone know that not just leaving kids behind in cars, but they can wonder in unlock cars and other items. They are letting everyone know everyday that the problem is still happening.
