“YOU FIGHT THE FIRES, LET US HANDLE THE PRESS”

  press

Firefighting is stressful enough, even without the media pressuring you for a comment. In today’s world of instant messaging, Facebook, and Tweets; what you say will live on the web forever; and can even be used in legal proceedings.

How the community receives that message will translate into every aspect of your operation from fund drives, crucial votes, recruitment, and retention of members.

Let our professionals help you:

  • Train your PIO’s with realistic mock press conferences
  • Write press releases
  • Prepare official statements
  • Organize press conferences
  • Plan for important community votes or bond items
  • Review your print material and mailings for content and message
  • Respond to critical incidents
  • Assist with community messaging during disasters & crisis communication
  • Assist with local newspaper weekly stories
  • Improve media relations

FDPR is 100% volunteer fire owned and operated. Our instructors have served as PIO’s ranging from small fire departments and VAC’s to the NYPD.
