Together, we can make our state a better place to live for all Missourians.”The lighting of the dome was done in coordination with the United Way of Central Missouri, which serves nine counties in the Mid-Missouri area and works alongside 12 other United Way chapters across the state that all do exceptional work. Together, these organizations are building stronger, healthier communities, giving all children an equal opportunity for education, breaking the cycle of poverty, and meeting a neighbor's basic needs. In 2024 alone, the United Way of Central Missouri delivered:Over 10,000 nights of shelter,36,557 meals for seniors,1,637 pairs of shoes for children.For more information on United Way of Central Missouri and its ongoing efforts, visit unitedwaycemo.org.“It is a great honor for our organization to have the State of Missouri recognize this momentous occasion,” Lee Knernschield, President of the United Way of Central Missouri said. “Serving the Central Missouri area is a great honor and we look forward to continuing this important work for years to come.”Photos of the Capitol lighted blue will be available on Governor Kehoe's Flickr Page.### https://www.modot.org/node/76762 76762 at https://www.modot.org Wed, 17 Sep 2025 15:20:02 +0000 St. Louis Work Zones September 18-24 Visitor (not verified) Wed, 09/17/2025 - 15:20 ST.

Unfortunately, some are wrong. A National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) study found that while most parents and caregivers believe they know how to install their car seats properly, about half (46%) have installed their child’s car seat incorrectly. As part of Child Passenger Safety Week (Sept. 21-27), Cape Girardeau Safe Communities, Southeast Coalition for Roadway Safety partners and other safety advocates will host free Car Seat Check Events throughout southeast and south central Missouri. Parents and caregivers with small children can ensure their car seats are installed correctly by visiting an inspection station throughout the area. Locations include Bloomfield, Fredericktown, Hayti, Jackson, Kennett, Licking, Park Hills, Perryville, Sikeston and Van Buren. Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians will provide education, perform car seat inspections, review expiration dates, discuss car seat installation, usage and car seat recalls. Checks take an average of 30 minutes to complete. Motor vehicle injuries are a leading cause of death among children in the United States, but many of these deaths can be prevented. Always buckling children in age and size-appropriate car seats, booster seats, and seat belts reduces serious injuries and death by up to 80%. (CDC) Quick Tips for Families: Wear your seat belt: Be sure everyone else in the car buckles up, too. When adults wear seat belts, kids use car seats, booster seats and seat belts. Set a good example and buckle up every ride, every time. Place kids under 13 in a back seat: It’s the safest place for them to ride. Never leave your child alone in a car, even for a minute: A car can heat up 19 degrees in just 10 minutes. Make sure your child is riding safely. Visit a car seat check event to see if you are using your car seat correctly. Common errors include a loose harness, not using the seat belt or LATCH system to properly secure a car seat, failing to correctly use the tether and being unaware of the risks of using a second-hand car seat or booster. A Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician can help you protect your child.
