Care Reach

Protecting the health of our children, regardless of their family's financial capabilities, is the sole purpose of Care Reach. This program stretches deep into the heart of Sumter and Lee counties and connects children with needed medical and dental care. Typically, these children are referred by school nurses and have problems that could affect educational outcomes. Funded by The Tuomey Foundation, Care Reach takes a holistic approach to helping children, including enrolling them in Medicaid and addressing their behavioral issues, as well as their physical health problems.

Car Seat Checks

Tuomey offers classes for parents on proper installation of car seats in their vehicles. If you can't work a class into your schedule, feel free to come by a SAFE Kids Sumter County and let us verify that your carseat is properly installed. Check the calendar for upcoming events.
