Building a Foundation for Passionate Partnerships & Safe Communities

Thursday, May 15, 2025
8:30 AM – 9:30 AM MST
Location: Cira B
Go beyond the fire, and engage in innovative approaches to community risk reduction! St. George Fire Protection District is redefining the role of the fire service with creative, proactive solutions that go beyond traditional fire suppression. While emergency response is critical, we believe true impact comes from preventing crises before they happen. Through innovative community programs—ranging from child safety workshops and youth education to large-scale public events—we are reducing injuries, promoting wellness, and building a safer, more resilient society. Join us to explore how fire departments can expand their reach, engage the community, and make a lasting difference beyond emergency response.

Learning Objectives:

  • 1. Upon completion participants will receive a roadmap to creating an educational program for school youth grades PK-12th. This workshop will equip professionals to promote safety and wellness through engaging and effective education methods.
  • 2. Upon completion, participants will hold methods to successfully educate, engage, and empower community members to recognize and respond effectively to unsafe and unhealthy situations. 3. Upon completion participants will understand that partnerships are vital, serving as a foundation for collaboration, innovation, and mutual growth. At their core, partnerships harness diverse strengths and perspectives, leading to richer ideas and solutions for preventing injuries.
