Sheriff’s Safety Town, a project of the Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office, is designed to protect children by teaching safety skills and allowing them to practice those skills in a safe environment. A proposed child-size town with miniature streets, buildings, crosswalks and working traffic lights offers the perfect setting for bicycle, pedestrian and vehicular safety instruction. Following classroom instruction, all Caddo Parish second graders will take a field trip to Sheriff’s Safety Town. Here, miniature electric cars, bicycles and pedestrians will share the road as students demonstrate the safety concepts they have learned. The visual impact of Safety Town will help reinforce what the students learn in class. Safety Town will also be available to children from other parishes and grades as time is available and will be used as a location for other youth/adult safety programs.
