About The Caribbean Association Of Fire Fighters

The Caribbean Association of Fire Fighters (CAFF) was established on October 26, 2000 in Castries, St. Lucia. The Association provides an umbrella organisation for fire fighters in the Caribbean by presenting a united body geared towards improving the conditions of respective fire departments through education and other basic support services.

It recognizes fire fighters as professionals who work relentlessly, forever raising professional standards. The association recognizes all international professional conventions and is made up of fire fighters from the following territories: Barbados, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Montserrat, St. Lucia, St. Kitt's and Nevis, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago.

Effective October 25, 2001 the Caribbean Association of Fire Fighters entered into membership with the International Association of Black Professional Fire Fighters (IABPFF) under which CAFF became an autonomous body within the structure of the International Association of Black Professional Fire Fighters and its recognized representative body within the Caribbean. Not withstanding the above, the Caribbean Association of Fire Fighters may enter into membership with any other International organisation, whose activities advance the objectives of the Caribbean Association of Fire Fighters.
