The purpose of the IAFF Fire Ground Survival program is to ensure that training for Mayday prevention and Mayday operations are consistent between all fire fighters, company officers and chief officers. Fire fighters must be trained to perform potentially life-saving actions if they become lost, disoriented, injured, low on air or trapped.

Ultimately, this training will SAVE LIVES! As of today, we have organized 5 Train the Trainer Sessions certifying over 135 members from 40 professional fire departments in the 6th District.
