H
ere's a question for you: Are you responsible for the
safety of your community?
If you're a fire chief, an electrical inspector, or a
crossing guard, the answer is easy. You'll also give a
quick "yes" if you're a police official, a plans reviewer, or an
animal control officer. Same for school principals, facilities
managers, and lifeguards.
But not everyone has an easy answer. What if you're a
leader of a faith-based group or a member of an Elks club? A
shopper at the local Winn-Dixie? A soccer mom who serves
pizza and popcorn in the concessions stand at home games?
I'll give you a hint: the answer is always "yes," though
some of you may wonder exactly what you should be doing
in the name of community safety.
As a community risk reduction strategist at NFPA, I
spend a lot of time addressing this question in many different ways. I also spend a lot of time defining community
risk reduction, or CRR as it is commonly called. CRR is the
process of identifying and prioritizing local risks, followed
by the integrated and strategic investment of resources to
reduce the impact-and, in some cases, occurrence-of
those risks. CRR can effectively address concerns ranging
from animal control to health risks among vulnerable populations to preparation for large-scale natural phenomena
including wildfires and tsunamis.
It's that breadth and flexibility that has made community
risk reduction a popular buzz phrase in public safety circles.
Driven in part by tightening municipal budgets, the emergence of data analytics, and an acknowledgement of a host of
emerging risks, community risk reduction pulls prevention
efforts out of their silos and makes them shared activities.
The process ensures equitable disbursement of resources for
high-risk properties and vulnerable populations who might
be underserved, and ensures that resources for intervention
