CO Safety Summit 2025

Biloxi, Mississippi

Beau Rivage Resort

August 11-13, 2025

Together Toward Zero: Progress, Partnership & Prevention

Carbon monoxide is called the invisible killer for a reason, and it strikes every single day. With more than 1,200 deaths and 100,000 emergency room visits each year in the U.S. alone, CO poisoning remains one of the most overlooked, but entirely preventable, public health threats.


The 3rd Annual CO Safety Summit is where leaders, lifesavers, and innovators come together to change that. This isn’t just another conference; it’s a national call to action, powered by data, driven by partnerships, and focused on saving lives through real-world impact.

 

Across three powerful days, the CO Safety Summit will gather fire service leaders, CO experts, and changemakers from across the country to chart the future of carbon monoxide prevention.

This year’s CO Safety Summit is a milestone. With 10 years of progress behind us and a unified vision for the future, we’re bringing together people to take bold steps toward ending carbon monoxide harm. Let’s build on what we’ve learned, ignite new partnerships, and drive real, lasting change together.

What to Expect at the 2025 CO Safety Summit

speakers

This year’s Summit is anchored by three high-impact themes:

  • Day 1: 10 Years of Progress – Reflecting on a decade of learning, advocacy, and systems change.

  • Day 2: Power of Partnership – Showcasing collaborative efforts that are advancing CO safety across sectors.

  • Day 3: Pathway to Prevention – Exploring the role of research, innovation, and policy in eliminating CO poisoning.


The Summit will feature can’t-miss sessions on everything from emerging codes and standards to the science behind new CO sensing technologies. Attendees will hear directly from families and frontline responders who are turning heartbreak into action, and from researchers and policymakers working to change systems at every level.


New this year: a special interactive workshop on public education and outreach, where communication experts and community risk reduction leaders will co-create a National CO Awareness Month Toolkit. Whether you're building local campaigns or shaping statewide messaging, you'll leave with ready-to-use materials and a stronger network of partners.


You'll also get exclusive updates from the CO Safety Coalition Workgroups, real progress from real experts tackling challenges in data surveillance, codes and regulations, and emergency and trade response.

 

The event will be held at the Beau Rivage Resort in Biloxi, MS, running concurrently with NASFM’s 35th Annual Fire Prevention & Safety Symposium. The two events share opening and closing programming and offer unique opportunities for cross-disciplinary learning and collaboration, reflecting the close connection between CO safety and fire prevention.

 

Whether you’re protecting communities, designing safer systems, shaping policy, or raising awareness, this is the place to lead, learn, and take action.

About the Carbon Monoxide Safety Coalition

The CO Safety Coalition is a revolutionary effort to bring all industries together to tackle carbon monoxide poisoning, injury, and death. The Coalition consists of three Work Groups:​

  • Codes, Standards, & Regulations

  • Emergency Response

  • Science & Innovation

Everyone involved in the Coalition will have a voice in this work, from researchers to survivors, advocates, manufacturers, government agencies, and legislators.

 

Together, we will work toward zero injuries and deaths due to carbon monoxide poisoning.

ABOUT NCOAA

Our mission is to drive a comprehensive conversation on the public health crisis of chronic and acute carbon monoxide poisoning.
