Abstract This final report describes the planning and implementing details of the Child Restraint Workshop series. A child restraint workshop was conducted in each of the ten NHTSA regions. The purpose of the workshops was to improve the effectiveness of grass roots organizations in ongoing child restraint programs, to begin coordination efforts within the states, and to involve other grass root supports to increase the number of organizations actively involved in the child passenger safety area. During each two day workshop representatives from various service organizations, health care professions, state legislatures and law enforcement along with highway safety officials were presented with facts about the extent of the problem and its solution followed by discussion of the various types of programs which promote child restraint usage - legislative, education and distribution. Volume I contains details about the planning and implementation of the workshops. Workshop planning details include selection of dates and locations, identification of participants, determination of program format and content, and preparation of workshop materials. Implementation details include an extensive outline of workshop topics and highlights, and the trends of each particular workshop. Also included are recommendations to NHTSA based on the problems and successes of the planning, implementing, and follow-up to the workshops. /Abstract from report summary page/
