The Pennsylvania Fire
& Emergency Services Institute is an association of emergency
service organizations, emergency responders, industry, and elected
officials. We research, exchange information, and cultivate
relationships among constituents about the issues affecting
emergency response and life safety issues in Pennsylvania.
Our goal is to
research, provide recommendations, and communicate issues to
emergency service organizations, state wide advisory groups,
interested individuals, and the community at large. We provide
information through speakers, instructors, seminars, position
papers, print and electronic media. We offer testimony for hearings,
committee meetings, and provide information to legislative staff.
We facilitate
relationships by participating in coalition meetings, leading
relationship development between local governments and emergency
service providers, and encouraging discussion among interested
parties. We uphold positions on legislation supporting
implementation of solutions for emergency service issues and
concerns. Our guiding relationship principles are to promote
collaboration and consensus among constituents and interested
parties. |
