There has been a significant decline in the number of volunteer firefighters, specifically in young firefighters. According to the National Volunteer Fire Council, Volunteer firefighters comprise 69% of all firefighters in the United States. This shortage in volunteer firefighters threatens the ability for small and rural fire departments to provide the essential public service.
