SFES PUBLIC EDUCATION PROGRAMS
Thousands of children are hurt or killed by fire each year in the United States. Some of our programs designed to help prevent the loss of life, injury, and property, are listed below. These programs help our citizens learn and understand the causes of fire and how to prevent them at home and work. Additional topics include how to develop and implement a home fire escape plan, fire extinguishers, injury prevention, etc. Many of these programs have been designed to target specific audiences related to age, relevant information and comprehension levels.
