Live-In Program

Living at a Volunteer Fire Department is a unique experience that will be rewarding and educational!

Motivation, dedication and professionalism are qualities that successful "Live-In's" must possess.  Live In's of Monroeville Vol. Fire Co. #1 not only possess these qualities, but are continuously seeking to further their knowledge and skills as well.  Many Live-Ins move on to full time Fire Fighter or EMS careers. 

Living at the Fire Station is RENT FREE, however live-ins hold the responsibility of running calls while they are at the station.

The station is 12 miles from downtown Pittsburgh and in close proximity to public transportation making it a very convenient living location for students attending local colleges such as: Community College of Allegheny County, University of Pittsburgh, Duquesne University, Point Park University, Chatham University, Carlow University, Carnegie Mellon University as well as the numerous other educational institutions in the greater Pittsburgh area.
