Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Join the email list on sapfa911.org to hear about the next smoke detector day, CPR class or family event..
What to expect
Smoke detector days give out free detectors along with fire-safety education. CPR and first aid classes are hands-on and taught by association members, and the site does not give their length or cost.
Newcomer welcome
Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: Programs are open to neighbors, and the site has a clear email sign-up and a public volunteer form, but the outreach page gives no dates or sign-up steps for classes..
