Fire Prevention
Most fatal fires in Minnesota happen where people feel safest -- in their homes. That's the bad news. The good news is that most fires are preventable if families simply take the time to discuss fire prevention.

The information from the State Fire Marshal will help you teach yourself and your children about ways to prevent a fire in your home. It will also help you ​drastically improve the chances your family escapes a fire unharmed.
