Analytics-Informed Smoke Alarm Outreach

[roughani]

As a component of its fire prevention effort, the New Orleans Fire Department (NOFD) offers free smoke alarm installation to all city residents. The initiative includes door-to-door outreach where firefighters will go throughout the city and install alarms for those in need. To ensure that the campaign has the greatest effect, NOFD worked with OPA to design a model that prioritizes areas of the city that are most likely to suffer fire fatalities and least likely to have a smoke alarm.
