Las Vegas Fire and Rescue, along with other first responders, participates in the Nevada Traffic Safety Summit held in Las Vegas on October 19, 2021. We are grateful for those that gave of their time as well as offered their skills & talents to make this another successful event.

A SHRP2 4-hour TIM Training class was held on March 10, 2021 for the Department of Wildlife. This training was invaluable to this department as along with their other duties, they also work vehicle crashes. In 2021, there were 430 first responders trained throughout the state.

The Nevada TIM Coalition will continue to focus on training, multi-disciplinary demonstrations and exercises, and other activities in order to bring attention to responder safety. The Nevada TIM Coalition thanks all for their continued support and participation.
