U.S. Fire Administration

U.S. Fire Administration The official page for the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA). America's fire losses today represent a dramatic improvement from more than 40 years ago.

USFA supports and strengthens fire and EMS to prepare for, prevent, mitigate and respond to all hazards. In 1971, our nation lost more than 12,000 citizens and 250 firefighters to fire. Acting to halt these tragic losses, Congress passed P.L. 93-498, the Federal Fire Prevention and Control Act, in 1974 and established the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) and its National Fire Academy. Since that ti

me, through data collection, public education, research, and training efforts, USFA has helped reduce fire deaths by more than 75 percent - making our communities and our citizens safer. USFA joined the Federal Emergency Management Agency in 1979. Our offices and the National Fire Academy campus are located at the National Emergency Training Center in Emmitsburg, Maryland.
