A "Children's Safety Fair," sponsored by the university's police department, will take place from 8 a.m. to noon in the parking lot of the Associated Students' Children's Center at 18343 Plummer Street on the west side of the campus.

"The university's police officers are hoping to reach out to the community at large and be good neighbors by making available some of the resources we have to offer," said Lt. Fred Fernandez with the CSUN Police Department. "We all have a vested interest in keeping our children safe."

In addition to the information for parents, children will get some safety tips, have an opportunity to dress up as a police officer and have a chance to meet CSUN police officers as well as California Highway Patrol officers and members of the Los Angeles City Fire Department.
