Hampton Division of Fire and Rescue

Citizens First Because We Care!

The Hampton Division of Fire and Rescue is a combination fire and rescue organization with more than 300 full-time personnel supplemented by a contingent of volunteers under the direction of Fire Chief Jason H. Monk. In 2016, the Division became the first combination fire and rescue agency in Virginia to hold an ISO-1 rating and be fully accredited with CFAI and the Center for Public Safety Excellence. The Division, whose volunteer service dates back to 1884, provides fire protection, emergency medical services, and community risk reduction services for the city's more than 136,000 residents and visitors. Hampton has 11 fire stations strategically located throughout its 53-square-mile border.
