Summit Response Group Delivers Fire Safety Presentation to Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired

Empowering Staff with Inclusive Emergency Preparedness

Summit Response Group recently had the honor of delivering a customized fire safety training session to the staff at the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired (ISBVI) in Indianapolis. With a focus on practical and inclusive emergency strategies, the presentation equipped educators and support personnel with tools to confidently respond to fire-related emergencies involving students with visual impairments.

Led by Summit Response Group professionals experienced in both public safety and specialized environments, the session emphasized:

• Inclusive fire evacuation strategies

• Real-world scenario planning

• Proactive risk mitigation techniques

• Decision-making under pressure

Recognizing that every environment presents its own challenges, Summit tailored the presentation to address ISBVI’s unique layout, student needs, and staffing structure. The training also created space for open discussion, where staff members could ask questions not only about fire safety in the school, but about broader emergency preparedness topics relevant to their lives and roles.

“The ISBVI team exemplifies what it means to take proactive responsibility for the safety of students and staff,” said Jason Kephart, President of Summit Response Group. “Our goal was to reinforce that fire safety planning doesn’t have to be one-size-fits-all it must reflect the unique environment and people within it.”

Summit Response Group remains committed to supporting schools, agencies, and organizations with high-impact, compassion-driven training. From fire drills to full-scale response planning, we help leaders prepare for what’s next with clarity, care, and confidence.
