One Decision's child safety film on vehicular heat stroke is a must see with the family.
PSA: Heat exhaustion extremely easy in parked cars; please watch for kids and pets.
A powerful short film that everyone should see. An important take away from the video is that there were opportunities to stop the child from being hurt. If you see something, say something.

Given the last heat wave with several days of near triple-digit temperatures, please kept an eye out for children and pets in parked cars. Summer is not over. Pass the word on this important short film. Thirteen children in the U.S., in 2013 alone, have died in cars according to the short. The duration is about 8 minutes in length, and provides additional statistics.
If you are interested in creating a public awareness campaign in Reston for this kind of topic, then please contact me.
