Gilbert is Looking For Firefighters

And especially for female firefighters, according to this article in the East Valley Tribune:

The department is on the brink of a massive recruiting effort for 45 firefighters to staff the stations and form a new battalion, Chief Collin DeWitt said. There are about 100 employees in the department now.

...

DeWitt and other town officials would like to increase the department’s gender diversity. Women comprise just 6 percent of the department’s employees. DeWitt said officials plan to advertise in churches, women-only gyms and other places aspiring female firefighters might frequent. Greater gender diversity could help firefighters better care for women, he said.

So if you know anyone who wants to be a firefighter, send them to the town to apply.
