Youth Firesetters
Adams County Fire Rescue believes that all fire setting is serious risk-taking behavior that needs to be addressed through education on the personal and societal dangers of fire misuse.
The mission of the Adams County Fire Rescue Youth Firesetter Intervention Program is to work collaboratively with the community to provide educational intervention for youths and their families experiencing problems with fire-setting behavior.
Don’t ignore the seriousness of this behavior! It is estimated that more than 80% of children who set fires will become repeat offenders if there is no intervention. ALL children who have engaged in fire-play or fire-setting behavior need intervention.
