Provides child car seats and education on how to properly use them to low-income New Mexico families at a low cost.There are approximately 40 distribution locations statewide, and each site has specific qualifications families must meet before being issued a seat. Most locations will ask families to provide proof of eligibility for Medicaid, WIC, or New Mexi-Kids. Fees vary by distribution site. However, the car seat fee for qualified families is typically $25. Personal checks are not accepted; please bring cash or a money order to pay the fee. All fees are put directly back into the program to assist other families. To find the nearest distribution site to you, please call our office directly at 800-231-6145 or 505-856-6143.
