Moderated by Bill Webb, CFSI Executive Director, the program will feature Chief Glenn Gaines, Acting Administrator of the United States Fire Administration.  Following the departure of Chief Kelvin Cochran as Fire Administrator, Deputy United States Fire Administrator Glenn Gaines was asked to assume the leadership of the USFA in an acting capacity.  During the webinar, Gaines will discuss the ongoing mission of USFA and the priorities he will address in the months ahead.  The webinar will provide opportunities for our listeners to ask questions and learn more about a number of USFA programs to protect Americans against fire and other threats.

Established in 1989 as a nonprofit, nonpartisan policy institute, CFSI is designed to educate members of Congress about the needs and challenges of our nation's fire and emergency services so that the federal government provides the types of training and funding needed by our first responders.  
For CFSI, success is built around education.  In an effort to better educate Congress about the needs of the fire service, and to keep the fire service informed on activities in our nation's capital, we are proud to offer the CFSI Webinar Series.  Each month CFSI hosts a webinar featuring members of Congress, Congressional staff, federal officials, or fire service leaders discussing the pertinent national issues affecting the fire and emergency services.
