Like many communities across America, I’m sure Fairwood is home to several people with disabilities. While we as a community encourage everyone to plan for disasters like fire, I believe it’s especially important to understand the unique risks people with access and functional needs may have, and plan for keeping them safe during such an emergency.
The U.S. Fire Administration, part of FEMA, has provided a Fire Safety Checklist for People with Disabilities. I encourage everyone to visit this page, take the necessary steps to keep yourself or others with disabilities safe, and tell a friend or neighbor about this resource.
We want everyone’s Fairwood experience to be safe and enjoyable.
