The National Volunteer Fire Council has released its 2009 Annual Report
The National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC) has released its 2009 Annual Report.

The Report, which is also available on the NVFC web site, highlights all of the NVFC's initiatives over the past year and looks at the many ways the organization is working for you.

The NVFC had a very busy year in 2009. It worked hard to advocate for the volunteer on Capitol Hill, and saw many victories and positive steps made on the legislative front. It expanded the offerings of its programs, including launching the Adopt the Program and revamped 'Fired Up for Fitness' initiatives of the Heart-Healthy Firefighter Program. Many new resources were released to assist departments, including the Fire Corps Liability Guide, grant-writing podcasts and tools, the Junior Firefighter Program Handbook, and much more.
