As part of the CAFC’s Fire Service for All Action Plan for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (ED&I), the CAFC has committed to developing an award to recognize leaders in this area. It has also committed to identifying leading practices that are already in effect across the country and to facilitating the sharing of learnings.

In keeping with these goals, the 2021 ED&I Award will be based on a call for “Proud Practices & Lessons Learned”. Award submissions are accepted in the submission form below as “Case Studies”. Each will be featured on the CAFC website for all members so that others can learn from your experience.

1. Please answer each question taking care not to exceed a response of 3 pages in Calibri 11 point font.
2. Type your response directly into the space given beside the question.
3. When completed, please save your submission on your desktop in the following format:  LASTNAME_FIRSTNAME.
