GOLDENDALE -- Law enforcement agencies in Klickitat County are hosting a new program that will offer a monthlong series of workshops to help educate parents and children.

The weekly events will be at 10:30 a.m. at Goldendale Head Start, 920 Schuster St. in Goldendale.
The workshop topics are:
* May 7, car seat and booster seat safety and crosswalk education presented by the Washington State Patrol and Klickitat County Public Health Department;
* May 14, Klickitat County 9-1-1 dispatchers on the importance of knowing your name, address, phone number and whom to call in an emergency;
* May 21, Klickitat County Sheriff's Department on protective gear for boating and bicycling;
* May 28, the Goldendale Police Department presents Stranger Danger and the buddy system, along with a demonstration with its drug dog.
