The New Boston Volunteer Fire Department has reinstated the cadet program to allow high school students a chance to become certified firefighters.
βThe New Boston Volunteer Fire Department is taking proactive steps to create opportunities that not only benefit our community but also shape the futures of our younger generation,β said Chris Taillon, chief of the NBVFD.
β The fire and emergency medical service offer incredibly fulfilling and dynamic career paths. However, many young people may be unaware of these options or feel uncertain about where to begin. By actively recruiting younger members, our fire department aims to ignite a passion for these vital roles from an early age.β
