Sections & Committees
Mission Statement
WFC Public Fire Educators (WPFE) is a section of the Washington Fire Chiefs, representing nearly 100 fire departments across the state. We’re a network of dedicated educators working to prevent fires, reduce injuries, and save lives through community-focused fire and life safety education.
What We Do – “Ignite Awareness, Extinguish Risk.”
Our Purpose
Our mission is built on connection and collaboration. We share resources, ideas, and best practices to help every department deliver effective safety programs that truly make a difference. WPFE provides affordable training and professional development opportunities, ensuring educators have the tools and confidence to create, present, and evaluate impactful programs.
We value both consistency and creativity — developing shared standards that strengthen public education across Washington while encouraging personal touches that reflect each community’s unique needs.
WPFE holds four business meetings each year, with dates posted on our website. These meetings are a time to exchange ideas, plan future initiatives, and strengthen our network. Every member’s voice matters, and everyone is welcome to participate.
Together, we’re building safer communities — one educator, one program, and one partnership at a time.
