MDAO's campaign focuses on water, window and car safety.

The Middlesex County District Attorney will be meeting with health officials in Cambridge tomorrow in a continuing effort to prevent child injuries and deaths this summer.

Ryan will be meeting with health officials at the Cambridge Health Alliance/Windsor Street Care Center, 119 Windsor St. in Cambridge, on Tuesday, July 7.

“It’s the time of year when all of us, parents, caregivers, and grandparents, need to be reminded about the safety measures to be taken around pools and lakes, hot cars, and open windows,” District Attorney Ryan said in a release from the DA’s office. “Sharing this information again and again ensures that we are reaching as many people as possible to prevent possible tragedies, and it makes a difference.”
