The Fire Safety House

This 35-foot trailer with a scaled-down kitchen and bedroom will visit your location. Instructors discuss various fire prevention ideas related to home environments. This program best serves children in the second and third grades of elementary school, but can be adapted to older age groups within an educational setting.

The Hazard House

This miniature house is easily transported to your classroom or meeting place. Cutaway construction allows participants to view various rooms, and occupants of those rooms,  highlighting fire related hazards found in the home.

Juvenile Fire Setter Intervention Program

Do you know a child who is preoccupied with fire? Have they been observed playing with matches or lighters? The dangers and consequences of these actions are discussed during sessions lasting a total of four to six hours. Counseling contacts can be provided if they are needed.

Free Smoke Alarms

Criteria and information on how to obtain the smoke alarms is provided by the Public Education Office at (410) 222-8303. Recipients will be asked to sign a waiver form by the installers.

Fire and Falls Prevention for Seniors

Visits are made to senior centers, seniors' condominiums, AARP and other groups that may benefit from an informative review of "fall hazards" and fire prevention suggestions.

S.A.F.E. (Safety and Fire Education)

S.A.F.E. was designed as a progressive fire prevention program for elementary school students. "Friendly Firefighter" visits to kindergartens, linked with "Fire Safety House" visits to second graders, and "Hazard House" visits to third graders complete an education that will provide a lifetime of proper choices related to fire prevention. A Request a Firefighter Visit (SAFE Program) form will initiate the program for your school. 

Fire Station Tours

Visit our Fire Station Tours page or contact our office at (410) 222-8303 to schedule a tour of your local fire station.
