"Women in the Fire Service: Meeting the Challenge"


Bring some visual interest to your next recruitment drive. Designed for fire departments to use in firefighter recruitment efforts aimed at women, this 10-minute videotape will attract attention and provide positive visual images for your intended audience.


The video features interviews with female firefighters from across the U.S., who discuss the challenges and rewards of their careers. Video footage and still shots of firefighting and EMS scenes, and of fire service women on the job, back up the interviews and a script by fire service writer Linda Willing that explores the history of women in firefighting and introduces the field to those who may not be familiar with it.

"Meeting the Challenge" is available in 1/2" VHS format. The tape by itself is $59.95 plus shipping. WFS also offers a recruitment package: one copy of "Meeting the Challenge" and 150 copies of our firefighter recruitment brochure. The recruitment brochure is a tri-fold, three-color flyer designed to be distributed at career days and other public-contact recruitment events. The package, a value of more than $110, is only $89.95 plus shipping.
