Fire Prevention Week™ 100th Anniversary: Fire Won’t Wait. Plan Your Escape™ Webinar

Join us to learn about this year’s Fire Prevention Week (FPW) theme, “Fire won’t wait. Plan your escape™”, October 9-15, which reinforces the critical importance of developing a home escape plan with all members of the household and practicing it regularly. In addition, this October represents the 100th anniversary of FPW, the nation’s longest-running public health observance on record. Learn more about the statistics behind the theme, tools and resources to help your organization have a successful FPW and what you can do to celebrate 100 years of fire safety.
