Save the date, it’s time to make a change in public safety. Way too long this topic has been swept under the rug or blatantly ignored and it’s time to fix it.
One major initiative is the development and launch of the National Emergency Response Information System (NERIS), which will replace the legacy NFIRS. We kicked off NERIS development just 10 months ago as a partnership between USFA, DHS Science and Technology Directorate (S&T), the Fire Safety Research Institute (FSRI), and in collaboration with the fire service at-large.
