On Tuesday evening, members of UGFD attended the township’s annual pride flag raising ceremony. UGFD prides itself on being, as Chief Geiger calls it, a big dysfunctional family. Our department Values Statement highlights the ideals of Safety, Integrity, Inclusion, Professionalism and Family.

Specifically during pride month, we would like to bring light to the Inclusion part of that statement. We believe in the inherent worth of every individual and value all members of the community and the department. We embrace the uniqueness and contributions of every individual as it reflects the diversity of our community and department.
