Overview of Fire-Related Issues with Jarod’s Law
Fire Marshal Alan Perkins, CFPS
I have been fortunate to be a part of the Jarod’s Law regulation for the last three years. After almost 30 years in the fire service I have seen many school fires and unfortunate safety related injuries occur to students. Historically, fires resulting in a major loss of life have resulted in important changes in building and fire codes and in standard fire protection or prevention practices.
