HELP SAVE LIVES AND PROPERTY

Arson affects everyone. Homes are destroyed, burned buildings create blighted areas, innocent people are injured or killed, workers lose jobs and cities lose tax dollars. It costs the nation and Illinois taxpayers millions of dollars each year. Arson's impact on the national and state economy is being recognized more by concerned citizens and organizations. An effective battle against arson can be accomplished only by the concerted action of dedicated groups and individuals.

 

CASH AWARDS FOR INFORMATION ON
ARSON FIRES AND ARSON PREVENTION

The Illinois Advisory Committee on Arson Prevention (IACAP) has been established to encourage and recognize good citizenship and to enlist public cooperation with state and local authorities in the investigation of arson fires and the arrest of arsonists.

 

ILLINOIS ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON ARSON PREVENTION

IACAP is dedicated to fire prevention education, the prosecution of arson cases and recognizing those individuals who have helped convict arsonists. The Illinois Arson Awards Program is the major tool used by IACAP to assist in the investigation and prosecution of arson cases. The Illinois FAIR Plan Association provides funds for cash awards to citizens who provide information that leads to the arrest and conviction of arsonists. If desired, informants may remain anonymous.


Since the 1979 inception of the Arson Award Program, it has paid out more than $200,000 in awards to over 400 individuals.


While authorities are not eligible for cash awards, they may receive plaques, equipment or scholarships in recognition of their contribution.

 

DO YOU HAVE INFORMATION ABOUT A POSSIBLE ARSON? You could be eligible for an award up to $2,500 for providing information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of an arsonist. A statewide Arson Hot Line (800) 252-2947 and a Chicago Arson Hot Line (773)533-3473 have been instituted for citizens to provide information, or they can contact any local fire or law enforcement agency.
