The Safety Village Board would like to make our friends and families aware we are now functioning under a new corporation “Safety Village of Johnson County”. We feel this is important as we want to be inclusive of all who have supported and attended Safety Village over the years. Later this week a dissolution of “Safety Village of Iowa City-Coralville” will be ran in print media. We want to assure you Safety Village is not going anywhere, we are moving on stronger and better than ever before. We are already planning and looking forward to camp in 2024. The reason for this public notice is a legal requirement and allows us to close a model that is no longer being used. We appreciate your understanding during this time. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach us at safetyvillageic@gmail.com
