- Abstract
- The Directory of National Community Volunteer Fire Prevention Program Community-Based Fire Prevention Education Initiatives is a principal product of the National Community Volunteer Fire Prevention Program (NCVFPP), administered by the National Criminal Justice Association under the auspices of the Federal Emergency Management Agency's United States Fire Administration (USFA). The NCVFPP is a community-based effort designed to increase the scope and effectiveness of local fire prevention and education programs. The Directory provides general information about the 31 local programs developed and implemented under the first phase of the NCVFPP that were updated through a follow-up effort and the two programs developed and implemented for visually- and orthopedically-impaired individuals under the second phase of the program. Appendix 1 provides information about the remaining programs that were developed and implemented under the first phase of the NCVFPP. The publication is intended to serve as a resource for states and for other organizations and individuals interested in developing or expanding local fire and burn prevention and education programs.
