The most effective way to protect yourself and your home from fire is to identify and remove fire hazards. Sixty-five percent of home fire deaths occur in homes with no working smoke alarms. During a home fire, working smoke alarms and a fire escape plan that has been practiced regularly can save lives.

AARP has partnered with the American Red Cross to host “Fire Safety” workshops to present to the community. These workshops will be held virtually and will be interactive so questions can be asked and knowledge can be shared.
