Volunteer Programs and Internships

SAFE Leader and Floor Monitor Program

In an emergency, SAFE Leaders aid in the safe and complete evacuation, or shelter in place, of their building and report injured and/or trapped persons to emergency responders; while Floor Monitors are responsible for warning building occupants to evacuate the building, or shelter in place, depending on the situation. Floor Monitors will then report the status of their floor to the SAFE Leader and/or first responders.
