From the NFVC: There are many resources available to help you promote holiday safety in your community. Distribute information and tips sheets at schools, in community centers, to community organizations, at senior centers, on your department’s Web site and social-media pages, to your e-mail lists, through local newspapers and radio and TV outlets, and in any other venue that will reach your community members. It is also a good time to conduct home-safety checks for the high-risk populations in your community.
