About Us
The Hanover Fire Department was created to provide an organized way for the citizens of the District to protect themselves from the dangers of fire. As years have progressed, the duties of HFD have broadened to include areas such as fire prevention, medical, non-fire rescue, and responding to a variety of other hazardous situations when citizens don’t know where else to turn for help. It is important for everyone to know the mission and goals of HFD, so that as time goes by, and we face new challenges, we won’t lose sight of why we are here.
