Leaving Home Safety

Did You Know That:
§One of every 3 people
will have a negative experience
with fire during their lifetime
§Young adults are the age group        least likely to have an escape plan        in case of a fire where they live
§Almost all fires start out small
      Fires and burns are very often preventable, but they still cause thousands of injuries every year, all too often with fatal results.
      People, especially young people, often cannot imagine being affected by fire. They are the age group least likely to have an escape plan in case of a fire where they live. If they can imagine it, they believe they can handle it, but almost every huge blaze started out as a small fire.
