Taking the fire service’s pulse on public education

Taking the fire service’s pulse on public education

Is the public responding to fire safety education efforts or turning a deaf ear? An Arlington, Virginia company is conducting a study to find out.

The study will attempt to answer these and other questions: Do fire department public education programs really get people to improve their fire safety behavior? What hard evidence is there to use when asking for more public education resources?

To contact the company, write TriData Corporation, 1500 Wilson Boulevard, Arlington, VA 22209, or call (703) 841-2975.
