How can you help?
Volunteers account for almost 75% of firefighters in the United States. You can join this noble tradition of service in your community – no experience required.
Today’s fire service does more than just fight fires. We respond to emergencies of all types, and take part in community activities alongside the auxiliary. We are anywhere our friends and neighbors need help.
You don’t have to run into a burning building to be part of the fire service! There are many jobs needed to make a fire department run smoothly. Whether you’re an accountant, a grocery clerk, a construction worker, or a retiree – we’ve got a position for you!
Many departments offer Juniors programs and Auxiliary ##### inert something about what juniors and auxiliary do and how they can help ########
