About  Facilitators  Conference  Contact Us

Once you decide that you want the LMA program to come to your community, the staff will work with you to start the process. This includes a short application and acknowledgement of the process, then LMA Facilitators are assigned. One IAFC facilitator and one IAFF facilitator co-lead each LMA delivery and they will work with the fire chief and union president to determine what delivery is best for your environment and community (LMA training or technical assistance, see details below).
