Campus Fire Safety Right-to-Know Act                                        How will the Campus Fire Safety Right-To-Know Act affect your school?           The Campus Fire Safety Right-to-Know Act requires colleges to report fire safety information to the U.S. Department of Education. Many of the core ideals of the Right-to-Know Act were successfully included in the recently enacted Higher Education Opportunity Act. As a result, academic institutions will be required to make annual fire safety reports available to the public. These reports must include:

  • The number of fires and the cause of each fire
  • The number of injuries and deaths related to a fire
  • The value of property damage caused by a fire
  • Descriptions of fire protection equipment (alarms/sprinklers) in each on campus housing unit
  • The number of regular mandatory, supervised fire drills; policies or rules regarding fire safety education and training programs provided to students, faculty, and staff;

How Can We Help Your Students Have a positive Campus Experience?
We provide a variety of services from on site consultation to training program development.

Also, we will assist parents in obtaining information about the fire safe status of the educational facility they are considering sending their child/children. please click on the services link on your left to be directed to how we can help.

From the Desk of the Executive Director                                              Each year more and more fires are occurring on college campuses, in Greek housing, and in student living facilities. In addition, more parents, students and campus administrators are putting a greater effort into fire safety on their campus. CampusFireSafety.Com was developed to provide an avenue for those needing assistance in their fire safety effort. We provide a wide variety of services from on-site risk assessment audits to educational programs for parents, students, faculty and staff.

For parents and future students, we will contact the college or university of your choice to obtain information about the fire safe status of that institution. We will also give you the contact information of anyone who declines our request for information requested by you a future student and their family.
