About the NAHF

Who We Are!

Since 1995, The National Association of Hispanic Firefighters (NAHF) has continued to encourage diversity within the United States fire service so that we (as a fire service) can better serve all of the communities throughout our nation.

The NAHF is committed to enhancing fire and life safety services throughout the country through recruitment, training, mentorship and career development of women and men firefighters of all race, color, religion, creed, social or economic background to best reflect and serve others in time of need.

Our goal is to also encourage fire departments to take a proactive approach to prevent harm through bilingual fire and life safety programs to reduce the loss of life and property.

The NAHF is proud to also sponsor several strategic partnerships between various United States fire departments and several fire departments in Latin America to enhance training and safety of our brothers and sisters on the job in other parts of the world.
