Designed for professional firefighters, counselors, family court representatives and educators who work with juveniles. The primary focus is the juvenile who is suspected of being involved with fire-play behavior. Prevention and intervention strategies can be followed step by step, or used as a framework to an existing program.

This program helps participants understand fire-play behavior, the risk of continuation, and implement interventions to reduce or eliminate such behavior.

The guide is broken down into five sections. They include -- Psychology of the Juvenile Firesetter, Interviews & Evaluation of the Juvenile Firesetter, FEMA-approved Risk Level Assessment Forms, Fire Safety Education, Companion Training Program, and an appendix of FireWatch Forms and Activities.
