The Community Fire & Life Safety Advocate (CFLSA) Program helps bridge language and cultural barriers by providing fire and life safety education through trusted community members. Community Fire & Life Safety Advocates are trained individuals who conduct outreach and share culturally relevant safety information in multiple languages, including Arabic, Dari, Pashto, Kiswahili, Kinyarwanda, and Spanish, helping connect more residents with important fire and life safety resources.
