Every year, almost 1,000 smokers and non-smokers are killed in home fires caused by cigarettes and other smoking materials. The U.S. Fire Administration is working to help prevent home fire deaths and injuries caused by smoking materials. Fires caused by cigarettes and other smoking materials are preventable.
As a member of the fire service, you know all too well the dangers of unattended or improperly discarded smoking materials.
The USFA has created a comprehensive Smoking & Home Fires Campaign Toolkit that contains free, copyright-free materials that can be printed, distributed and presented to the community you serve. The toolkit is a comprehensive resource that contains materials for fire service personnel to use within their community. Below is a list of all toolkit materials:
The USFA urges you to take advantage of the toolkit resources. The materials in the toolkit can be implemented immediately within your organization and community. Work with your local community organizations on this effort to maximize coverage.
