Strategic goals
I. Fire and Life Safety Education: The NAHF will endeavor to improve the quality of fire protection afforded the communities and regions throughout the nation by developing and conducting fire prevention and safety programs that educate and reduce the loss of life and property with special emphasis on serving the Hispanic community. We will do this by delivering proven existing materials as well as to develop original and culturally relevant programs targeting our specific neighborhoods.
II. Recruitment, Retention and Advancement. It is the NAHF purpose to develop and implement a national recognized standardize performance program to recruit, retain and advance, prospective firefighters. This model shall associate those inherent and learnable skills necessary to provide enhanced emergency services free of cultural and/or racial bias. These procedures are now under consideration and in development in collaboration with Hispanic businesses and corporations, and those national organizations, which are supportive of this design.
III. Building Coalitions and Strategic Partnerships. The NAHF is committed to the establishment of coalitions and strategic partnerships with other national fire and emergency service organizations through mutual contacts promoting respect and understanding; identifying those goals and objectives common to those organizations, and to encourage the development of a mutual accepted action plan.
IV. Legislation and Political Action. The NAHF will continue to expand its political and legislative course of action; either independently or through the formation of a coalition of partners with regard to collective efforts on common principles or issues.
