Community Outreach Education (COE) Program

The San Francisco Fire Department is excited to introduce our Fire Prevention Community Outreach Education Team, providing vital information to San Francisco community groups and associations as part of SFFD's Community Outreach Education Program.  Our goal is to make San Francisco a safer place to live.  We have created a presentation and packet of information that promotes fire and life safety, information aimed at reducing the risk of fires and preventing property damage due to fires, as well as answers to questions.

The fire and life safety presentation lasts approximately 60 minutes and will include:

  • Home escape planning;
  • Top causes of fire in the home, with tips to help prevent them;
  • Information about carbon monoxide and smoke alarms;
  • Fire extinguisher operation demonstration, with a practice session using a digital extinguisher training simulator that can give the 'real' experience of operating a fire extinguisher;

Special fire and life safety information can be included upon request (example: hazardous material storage, LPG (propane) storage and regulations, etc.)  Please ask if you have a special concern or request for your group.
