The Halton Hills Fire Department has launched the Fire & Emergency Services' Community Connect platform— a free, secure, and easy-to-use tool that helps enhance emergency response. Through voluntary participation, residents and business owners can share vital information about their properties, household members, and specific needs, enabling first responders to better prepare and respond during emergencies.
