Title
Latchkey Kids Calling Service Checks on Children at Home.
Description
Database Systems Corp. (DSC) provides an automatic phone calling service that contacts home alone children (often called Latchkey Children) to ensure they are OK. Parents may enroll their child in this service using DSC's Latchkey Kids Registration form.
Latchkey kids is a term that refers to younger children that return from school to an empty home because their parents are away at work. There are different laws that currently define the age of a child who is able to remain at home unattended by a parent or guardian.
DSC has been in business since 1978 and is a leading developer of call processing systems. This technology is ideally suited for certain community service programs and applications.
