“Small Hands – Big Fires” Pamphlet

Description

The Small Hands – Big Fires Pamphlet provides important information on juvenile fire setters so that communities can work together to prevent deadly consequences. The brochure examines the typical profile of a fire setter, identifying the various possible motivations for setting fires. Children cause nearly 80,000 structure fires every year and many times, the victims of these fires are the children themselves.

Readers are advised that when children are caught playing with fire, it should not be dismissed as a phase. Instead it should be taken very seriously as there are hundreds of thousands of fires set by young people every year. The brochure lists fire prevention techniques and it also delves into possible treatment options for those juveniles who may have a difficult time staying away from fire. Early detection and treatment is essential to prevent normal childhood curiosity from turning into a disaster. Don’t let small hands cause big fires!
