Fire Department

Preventing Injury & Death

The mission of the Public Education Section is to prevent unintentional injury and death through education and active intervention. Comprised of three certified teachers and one fire inspector, this team works together to provide quality educational programs and safety resources to the public, reaching approximately 23,000 residents each year.

Programs

Our injury prevention programs are designed to meet the needs of community members as their roles and responsibilities change during each stage of life. We present on topics such as fire safety, drowning prevention, poisoning, and motor vehicle safety. Through these programs, Tucson Fire is able to empower our community by providing them with the prevention education and safety resources they need to create and maintain safe homes and safe families.
