Introduction to the Family Reunion Planner

All summer long, African American and Black families across America gather together at family reunions to celebrate life and honor family bonds. In celebration of these family reunions, this planner provides sample material templates and other resources that can be used to educate families about the importance of using safety belts and child safety seats as they travel to and from their family gatherings.

Please select, tailor, and distribute this planner in a way that best fits your local situation and objectives.

Please note: while NHTSA recognizes that certain racial or ethnic groups may use certain terms to identify their members, NHTSA uses the terms “Black” and “African American” interchangeably to describe those who identify with either group.
