Both our Junior and Restricted members participate in restricted Firefighter activities as permitted by the department's policies through hands-on training and classroom instruction while earning certifications.
The youth in Minoa have always inspired us to better our community, and that kind of idealism can be infectious, and real change can occur when paired with an opportunity to serve. Our Youth Programs are the intersection of aspiration and action.
We aim to instill a passion for volunteering in Fire & EMS services by providing volunteer opportunities for those ages 14 to 17, adding experience, and knowledge, and making lifelong relationships that have an invaluable influence on their character and potential career path.
Minoa Fire Department is fully committed to providing accessible facilities, elements and
channels of communication to all members of the public. As part of this commitment, Minoa Fire Department
has a policy of providing an accessible website compatible with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) and
commercial screen reading software. All features of the website are coded to allow individuals with vision and
other impairments to understand and use the website to the same degree as someone without disabilities. We welcome
feedback and can often resolve issues in a timely manner if they arise.
If you need any special assistance or accommodations:
Minoa Fire Department has designated a compliance officer for website disability-related accommodations.
The compliance officer has received training in website accessibility and updates the site in accordance with those best
practices. Contact our accessibility officer to report an issue.
Compliance Procedures and Reports
In addition to testing with users with a wide range of disabilities and coding our website to WCAG standards,
Minoa Fire Department regularly scans its website to ensure ongoing compliance, and makes timely
changes to any inaccessible changes, if any are found.
Linked Documents and Third Parties
Please note that this site may link out to third-party websites, such as state or federal agencies, that do

agenda packets, for example. While we cannot control the accessibility of content provided by third parties,
