CHFD FIREFIGHTERS VISIT TOPS PROGRAM

This week, CHFD A & B Platoon Firefighters from Engine 22 (Kings Highway Station) are meeting with members of the Jewish Family & Children's Services of Southern New Jersey (JFCS) TOPS program. TOPS (T...o Our Continued Success) is a day program for young adults with special needs who are 21 and over. It meets at the Jewish Federation's Gesher House on Chapel Avenue.

Firefighters are talking about their typical day-to-day activities, delivering fire safety tips, showing off their engine and equipment, and practicing fire alarm evacuations with the young adults in the program.
