Pasco Safety Town

The Safety Learning Center for Children

Pasco Safety Town is a realistic, child-sized town offering complete hands-on safety education for kindergarten through second grade age children. Public and private schools, as well as children’s groups, visit Safety Town via scheduled field trips Monday through Friday throughout the year. The goal of Pasco Safety Town is to reduce accidental injuries and deaths of children through an on-going community-based safety education program.

Many public and private agencies, businesses and civic organizations worked together to create and maintain Pasco Safety Town. Operated by the Pasco County Sherriff’s Office since 1995, Safety Town sits on six acres of The Concourse and was designed specifically for safety education of children ages 5 – 8. The scaled down paved streets with working traffic signals, miniature buildings and a railroad crossing help make safety training exciting and effective.

Pasco Safety Town has educated over 100,000 children on a variety of safety topics including pedestrian safety, water safety, fire safety and awareness, personal safety and Internet safety. Community volunteers are trained to ensure a quality training experience for the children.
