Public Education

Fire Extinguishers – Kitchen Safety – Fire Drills – Kids Page – Hotel Safety - Recalls

Public education is the key to reducing the number of fires and fire related injuries or deaths. Our education program spans all age groups. From pre-k to nursing homes, we provide the latest data, tools, and literature to inform the public of the dangers of fire and the steps they can take to reduce the likelihood of becoming a statistic. During the month of October, our program reaches out to almost every type of school in Tomball, and even a few just outside of Tomball.

Using our Public Education trailer, we can take our show on the road and create an atmosphere that resembles most houses. The idea behind our trailer is to allow participants to experience an environment that is similar to what they could be faced with at home. The trailer is a 33ft. RV that was converted into a safety house. Volunteers removed all of the exterior graphics and the inside bedroom components. We added bleacher style seats in front, bench seats in the kitchen, and a bed in the rear. The restroom was converted into command post, with controls for the electronics and communication system. The stove, sink and fridge were also left in tack to allow us to teach the importance of kitchen safety.
