Community Risk Reduction and Reporting

Community Risk Reduction

The Office of the Commissioner of Insurance and Safety Fire’s Community Risk Reduction and Reporting Division supports Georgia’s fire service by coordinating statewide fire‑safety reporting, prevention initiatives, and data‑driven community programs. This division manages required fire incident, drill, and fatality reporting; provides guidance and education to agencies; and ensures consistent documentation that strengthens risk analysis and public‑safety planning. Through its work, the division helps local departments identify risks, improve prevention strategies, and support safer, more resilient communities across Georgia
