🔥🚨 Choosing, installing and maintaining smoke alarms doesn't have to be complicated.
Jason Patton from @FireChronicles teams up with @RedCross to cover the basics, from where smoke alarms belong to how often they should be tested.
Thank you to @scfdpio and all volunteers who participated in our latest Sound the Alarm event in Casselberry. More homes now have free smoke alarms installed, keeping them safe in the event of a fire. We're grateful for your help!

Nearly 40% of Americans say their community experienced damage from extreme weather in the past year. These disasters don't always make national headlines, but their impact is felt every day in communities across the country.
In a new @Forbes article, Anne McKeough, our chief development officer, explores the rise of "quiet disasters" and why investing in preparedness, recovery and community resilience matters more than ever. rdcrss.org/3U6q55u
