Message from the Deputy Public Health Officer
One of the reasons I moved to Marin from Los Angeles was for my 5 year old and 3 year old to explore nature. As the weather warms up so does this risk of drowning (Drowning is a leading cause of injury death for young children ages 1 to 4). My job as a mom is to keep my kids “healthy, happy, and safe.” But, pool parties often include parent alcohol consumption and reduced supervision. As providers, we can encourage parents to promote water safety and prevent unintentional drownings by taking precautions (which includes moderating their alcohol consumption).

Stay safe,
Lisa Santora
