🔔🔥 When there is a fire, smoke spreads fast. It can also be thick, dark, poisonous & impossible to see where you’re going. Working smoke alarms give you early warning so you can get outside to safety. Act quickly when you hear them beep! #EPWeek2022

During a fire, leave the building as quickly as possible. Once you're safely outside, stay outside & call 9-1-1 or your local emergency number to report the fire. #FirePrevention

Fires have the potential to spread within a matter of minutes. Older adults should have multiple working smoke alarms & should create their fire escape plan around their abilities. Help reduce home fire injuries by sharing our resources: usfa.fema.gov/prevention/out… @ASAging @AARP

COVID-19 has affected us all and shown the importance of helping one another and advocating for those who need it. Help “lift each other up” and support programs that encourage healthy self esteem and teach empathy, compassion and kindness. #PinkShirtDay #erasebullying
