Fire Volunteer Programs

Looking to get involved? MFMD has a variety of volunteer programs available which help to support the community. All of our programs offer the training to be successful no matter how you choose to help.

• Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) - Members are trained to assist their community or workplace following an emergency event. 

• Business Education Safety Training (BEST) - Volunteers visit low-hazard businesses to help identify fire and safety hazards to help keep the public safe.   

• Home Safety Education (HSE) - Volunteers visit people in their homes and provide safety suggestions to help with fall prevention, fire safety planning, smoke alarm checks, and grab bar installations. 

• Internship Opportunities - MFMD offers a variety of internship opportunities designed to support the intern's education in their area of study or interest. Please email us at FDSocialServices@mesaaz.gov for more information.
