After a home fire, once the flames are put out and damages are assessed, a family is left to pick up the pieces. Beyond statistics, each home fire has a story. The continual effects of how homeowners cope with loss on different levels, firefighters with career-altering injuries, burn survivors who are forever changed; these stories are often not heavily shared in the news.
The National Fire Protection Association presents, The Survivors, a multi-part podcast showcasing the lifelong toll that fire has taken on a family and the people responsible for burn treatment and recovery in America.
Every day seven people die from home fires in the U.S., and another 13,000 are injured each year. These statistics, while important, are only a small piece of America's complex home fire problem.
Produced by the National Fire Protection Association in cooperation with the Phoenix Society for Burn Survivors. Read more here.
