This Firefighter Life Safety Initiatives Resource Kit (Volume 2) provides further opportunities to participate in the most important mandate to ever face the U.S. fire service: to prevent, whenever possible, firefighter line-of-duty injuries and deaths. Since the publication of the first Firefighter Life Safety Initiatives Resource Kit in 2006, we have made important strides in firefighter life safety, through spreading the message that Everyone Goes Home. Feedback over the past year tells us that firefighters are making the commitment everyday to institute safe practices which will reduce their risk of being injured on the job. Fire department and communities are supporting these efforts by adopting the 16 firefighter life safety initiatives and basing important decisions regarding fire service culture change. These changes will include methods of training, the use of risk assessment tools, and the development of health and wellness programs, among others.

Volume 2 contains the following programs and resources:
