The National Manufactured Home Owners Association (NMHOA) is teaming up with the American Red Cross to offer free smoke detectors to residents of any resident-owned community.

Any ROC interested in arranging for free smoke detectors for residents should reach out to Ishbel Dickens, executive director of NMHOA, at ishbel@nmhoa.org. Dickens will connect ROCs with the right people at the Red Cross who can help.
Smoke detectors should be installed in every bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level of every home. They should be tested every month and replaced every 10 years. When a smoke alarm sounds, get outside and stay outside.
For more about smoke detectors, visit the National Fire Protection Association’s website.
