Twenty-nine local affiliates of two national organizations that sponsor community-based intervention programs for juvenile firesetters completed a 32-item survey on the characteristics of the populations served, the services provided, program operations, and obstacles to service delivery. Sixteen programs that used the intervention approach developed by the United States Federal Emergency Management Agency were compared with 13 programs that used the approach developed by the National Firehawk Foundation. The comparisons revealed few significant differences between the two groups. Both types of programs emphasized detection and initial assessment of the firesetter and relied heavily on fire safety education as an intervention measure, although Firehawk programs offered a service that matched firesetters with volunteer fire fighters who serve as appropriate role models.
两个为青少年纵火者开展社区干预项目的全国性组织的29个地方分支机构完成了一项包含32个项目的调查，内容涉及所服务人群的特征、提供的服务、项目运作以及服务提供过程中的障碍。将采用美国联邦紧急事务管理局开发的干预方法的16个项目与采用国家火鹰基金会开发的方法的13个项目进行了比较。比较结果显示两组之间几乎没有显著差异。两种类型的项目都强调对纵火者的发现和初步评估，并且严重依赖消防安全教育作为一种干预措施，不过火鹰项目提供了一项服务，即让纵火者与充当合适榜样的志愿消防员配对。
