The Times-Dispatch reports on a new initiative by the Richmond Department of Fire and Emergency Services to improve communications between the community and the department:

The program, called Building Bridges, “seeks to enhance our relationship with the community so that we can promote a greater degree of safety for our citizens and firefighters,” said Richmond Fire Chief Robert Creecy.

Building Bridges will undertake a culturally relevant approach involving key stakeholders in the community and fire department.
