The New York Times Features Injury Expert Kristy Arbogast Speaking at Federal Transportation Meeting

Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) to address the seasonal tragedy of
heat deaths among children left in unattended cars. Arbogast supports the call
for increased national awareness surrounding the issue, but she also expanded

outlined a program currently under development by The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia to
evaluate potential solutions. Read more about the federal roundtable, and then learn more car
