Needs Assessment
The Fire Service Needs Assessment is an annual survey conducted by the Virginia Department of Fire Programs. Fire departments complete a survey questionnaire designed to identify the needs of Virginia’s Fire Service. Results are then compiled and published in a comprehensive report available each year in January in time for the General Assembly.
2009 Needs Assessment
The 2009 Needs Assessment Report is now available. Thanks to all fire departments in Virginia for
their efforts in responding to the survey. The assessment could not be successful without their valuable
support and contribution.
