Multicultural Fire Prevention Efforts https://myclassroom.apus.edu/d2l/le/205174/discussions/List
The United States has always been known as a melting pot. Our country continues to become more multicultural each and every year. As we read in Chapter 9, some groups in our communities do not respond to traditional fire safety education outlets. Because of different cultural values, reaching some groups and establishing meaningful relationships can be very challenging. However, many times these groups are the very people who we need to reach and change attitudes and behaviors regarding fire safety.
Using your textbook, the internet and other scholarly journals, research and report on a fire department that was able to reach out to a cultural group in their service area and improve the fire safety education efforts with this population of the community.
Make sure to report demographic information on the service area using the US Census website.
Include the difficulty the fire department was having reaching out to the particular group as well as the strategies they employed to improve relationships and make a positive impact.
