The Student Awareness of Fire Education (S.A.F.E.) is designed to equip elementary, intermediate and high school students with skills for recognizing the dangers of fire, the importance of working smoke detectors, exit drills in the home and the fire hazards and health risks of smoking. Since the S.A.F.E. program began in 1996, child fire deaths have dropped significantly in Massachusetts.
The second program is Senior SAFE, which aims to reduce older adult fire deaths through fire and life safety education. Age 60+ residents learn how to avoid hazards in their homes. They also get smoke detector batteries changed as well as outdated detectors replaced at no cost to them.
