According to the National Fire Protection Association, a 2018 study showed that 8% of firefighters are female, 4% are career firefighters  4% were volunteers.   The Women in Fire Association reports that there has been very little research to prove the exact percentage of career Fire Chiefs that are women, yet it is known that the first career female Fire Chief was Rosemary Rappole Bliss.

Congrats to Fire Chief Tiffany Green for your appointment as the first female Fire Chief for Prince George County.

Happy International Women’s Day to Chief Green and all the Amazing Women Across the country who make us safe!
