The Automatic Fire Alarm Association (AFAA) is in the process of attempting to start a new AFAA Chapter in the Kansas City Area and would like to get in touch with any Mo-Kan SFPE Chapter Members that are interested in getting this Chapter started. AFAA is hoping to draw from the 4 state region (Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska) since there is no AFAA State Association in those states. The primary purpose will be to provide training/education and networking opportunities, with the focus of increasing the quality of fire alarm design, installation, and testing. 

​AFAA is looking to have a meeting on or around October 30th. Stay tuned for additional information once meeting date and time is finalized.
