Fire Prevention Week prep: Plug-and-play messaging you can use today

Andrea Vastis from the NFPA offers simple fire prevention messages to help fire departments plan for the big event

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 Fire Prevention Week™, 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:

  • The top 3 cooking fire messages firefighters should know
  • Where to find plug-and-play resources to share with your community
  • How to flip negatives into positives when sharing life safety messaging
