Child Safety Classes

Throughout the year, the Parker Police Department hosts free Child Safety classes for the general public.

These classes are designed for children 5 to 14 years old who desire to learn 9-1-1 education, how to avoid dangerous situations, and what to do and how to act in dangerous and/or uncomfortable situations. Commonly referred to as "Stranger Danger" Class; however more emphasis will be placed on "Dangerous Situations" children may get themselves into; even with a person they know and trust.

This is not a self-defense class and parents are required to stay the duration of the class.
