Here
are some amusing short stories featuring characters who tell (or
experience!) anecdotes about fire
prevention. Over the seasons and in their
everyday lives, these characters encourage you to think about
everyday fire hazards and teach you what you have to do to keep
your family safe.

Fire
Safety begins at home. Every family should know the basics of
how to prevent fires at home and what to do in case there is a
fire. The Fire Department's Office of Fire Safety Education has
prepared several brochures to help the whole family learn about
what steps to take to ensure that everyone's home is fire-safe.
Moreover, you will find in this web site some statistics
on fires that occur in the United States and
analytical and topical reports that describe the national fire
problem. Also included are statistics related to firefighters
and fire departments
You
CAN Improve Fire Safety In Your Home. Start by making
a fire safety inspection of your home. Check your house or apartment
room by room to see which of these fire hazards you can find.
Then take action to correct them! Visit the New
York City Fire Department Web site for more
