Scope and Content Note

Women in Fire (formerly known as International Association of Women in Fire & Emergency Service [iWomen]) is descended from Women in the Fire Service (WFS), Inc., which began in 1982. In September 2007, WFS merged with the Women Chief Fire Officers (WCFO) to form the iWomen. Women in Fire supports, mentors, and educates current and future women in the fire and emergency services. The website includes a photo gallery, news and job postings, position statements, reports, guidelines and procedures, and other information about the association.

Appraisal
