One of the Citizen Corps partner programs is Fire Corps. Fire Corps is a partnership between The National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC), the International Association of Fire Chiefs' Volunteer & Combination Officers Section (VCOS), and the White House's USA Freedom Corps Office.


The mission of Fire Corps is to increase the capacity of volunteer, career and combination

fire and EMS departments through the use of citizen advocates. Fire Corps provides

resources for departments to utilize citizen advocates in non-operational roles so

they can develop, implement and sustain programs and services that will help

their department meet the needs of their community.

 
 

 

Why Join Fire Corps?

 It allows emergency responders to focus on critical, life-threatening situations.

It increases a department’s ability to provide additional services to the community

 and sustain ongoing programs.  It provides a vital link between department and community.

declines dramatically diminishes because of many social issues such as

lack of time to attend training or fire calls, due to working more than one job,

family commitments, or no desire to be in harm's way....  we now have an alternative.

 

.....the PJFD FIRE CORPS.

 

You can provide us and our community with your talents without having to sacrifice

your time at the fire station, in training or at an actual fire call. 

You can, in many cases do it at your leisure, from your own home or one of our facilities.
