Advocacy and Education

Emergency Services in Carroll County are evolving with the changing needs of the community. Local 5184 was formed with the goal of bringing the career contingent to a common dialogue. With a unified voice we look to play an active role in the future of the
County and participate in that process. Alongside the established representation of volunteers, Local 5184 will work as a positive advocate to see a sustainable and beneficial system that provides the highest quality coverage to our communities. |

We look to play an active role in advocation, education, and the future of emergency services in our area. We do not intend on pursuing collective bargaining at this time, but look forward to utilizing the greater resources provided to us by the IAFF to benefit Carroll County and its Fire/Rescue system.
Local 5184 is motivated to build a positive relationship with our County Commissioners, State Representatives, and local political leaders. With these open lines of communication, in conjunction with the dialogue and working relationship we hope to build with Carroll County Volunteer Emergency Services, L-5184 intends to see the advancement of safety, services, and resources in Carroll County, MD.

Working TogetherMaryland is a strong environment for Emergency Services which is a direct benefit to her residents and visitors. With some of the country's largest departments, Maryland fire, rescue and EMS services benefit from the progressive influence of national leaders. The IAFF Locals already established in all of our surrounding neighbors have lead the way for Carroll County to share in that high standard of service to our communities.

Like our Brothers and Sisters preceding us in neighboring Locals, Local 5184 has its roots in humble beginnings. Commonly, many of our neighboring affiliates saw their start with the employees of the individual volunteer corporations coming together ahead of a county fire/rescue system just as Carroll County exists now. This allowed them the foresight and opportunity to build positive relationships and actively play a part in the future of their counties through broad change.
Decades later, Local 5184 emulates the example set forth by its IAFF family, and as other affiliates, will build relationships in a proactive manner, establishing a positive and active voice. We take pride in our affiliation with the well established IAFF family around us and hope that with their collaboration, we can continue to raise standards and improve the fire/rescue system.
