An organization worth knowing about: The National Volunteer Fire Council) NVFC)
is a non-profit membership association representing the interests of the volunteer fire, EMS and rescue services. The NVFC serves as the information source regarding legislation, standards and regulatory issues.
That’s their description of themselves.
They’ve got very useful pages on:
- Legislation
- Funding sources
- Regulations and standards (their Introduction to Regulations & Standards is excellent – and a concise explanation of how complex fire safety and suppression is – how it connects to industrial standards, building codes, and transportation issues)
- Quick-reference state-by-state comparison of benefits for volunteers
A useful resource for volunteer emergency responders and planners.
