Community Outreach CPST Car Seat Installation Program

Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District has sponsored Nationally Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians (CPST) to serve our community since 2019.  ICFPD technicians are listed on the Car Seats Colorado website at  Inspection Stations — Colorado Department of Transportation (codot.gov).

How to sign up:

Appointments can be scheduled by emailing carseattech@intercanyonfire.org or calling 303-697-4413.

We provide Inspections by appointment at Inter-Canyon Fire Stations 1, 3 and 4.

Things to Know  about our program:

Inter Canyon Technicians also offer our program to neighboring mountain area jurisdictions such as Platte Canyon, North Fork, Elk Creek, Evergreen, Foothills, Genesee, and Indian Hills.

Inter Canyon technicians utilize the Digital Car Seat Check Form provided by Car Seats Colorado to reduce paperwork. Car Seats Colorado has also introduced several resources to assist and educate families and caregivers on their website.

Inter Canyon technicians can also perform Virtual Car Seat Checks by utilizing multiple social media platforms and messaging services such as Face-Time, Zoom and Messenger Video calling for those who prefer to avoid face-to-face contact and maintain social distance.

All participating citizen information is kept confidential between the Department, Car Seats Colorado (for inspection form submission), and the Caregiver to comply with all applicable laws and regulations i.e. HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)
