The Office of State Fire Marshal (OSFM) developed the model program The Invasion of the Smoke Alarms to assist local fire departments in planning and conducting community door-to-door smoke alarm campaigns.
The goals of the campaign are to:
Install smoke alarms in homes that are at high-risk for a fire and that do not have a working smoke alarm
Educate homeowners/residents on the importance of maintaining smoke alarms
OSFM is offering The Invasion of the Smoke Alarms door-to-door campaign workshop(s) at no cost for local fire departments and their community partners. Those attending the workshop will receive a free kit for the fire department. When the fire department's action plan for a door-to-door campaign is approved they may receive up to 50 free smoke alarms and $250 for the campaign.
