Juvenile Firesetter Program

This is a state-wide program that local Police and Fire Department members use to help those juveniles who are involved with starting fires. The program involves fire safety education and counseling for children between the ages of 3 through 14 years old. The United States Fire Administration reports that between 25 and 40 percent of all fires are set by children within this age group.

If you have a juvenile firesetter problem, we have trained firefighter/intervention specialists who will handle this matter confidentially. Do not delay getting help for this problem! Contact Lt. Jeffrey Swanson at (630) 653-5050 ext. 216
