We’re not going to Stop, Drop and Roll over on our fire prevention messages; we’re going to embrace them with open arms to create simple but effective calls to action that can make a difference in your community. Helping us in this effort is Andrea Vastis, senior director for public education with the NFPA, which runs <a href='https://www.nfpa.org/fpw'>Fire Prevention Week</a>™, coming up Oct. 8-14. This year’s FPW theme is “Cooking Safety Starts with YOU! Pay attention to fire prevention.™"
We dig into all of this:
<ul><li>The top 3 cooking fire messages firefighters should know</li>
<li>Where to find plug-and-play resources to share with your community</li>
<li>How to flip negatives into positives when sharing life safety messaging</li>
</ul>
