Operation Life Safety changes name

Operation Life Safety changes name

Operation Life Safety is now the Residential Fire Safety Institute (RFSI). The name change was adopted in June at a steering committee meeting in Baltimore. Operation Life Safety will remain as the RFSI`s flagship program.

The organization`s mission remains the same–to reduce residential fire deaths, injuries, and property loss by advocating residential fire sprinklers and smoke alarms and teaching fire-safe behavior. Much of the OLS information can be downloaded at the RFSI Web site, (firesafehome.org).
