What is Firewise?
Firewise Certification is a program of NFPA that is awarded to communities that meet targets for dollars/hours spent on wildfire mitigation based on the number of homes in the community and conduct an annual community day that includes education and volunteer work. It also requires a community wildfire risk assessment. (See Firewise.org for more detailed information)
Why should we become a Firewise community?
How can I be involved?
The work will involve several planning meetings as well as some data gathering. The wildfire risk assessment will be done by the Fire Department. If you are interested in helping Glen Haven becoming more wildfire ready, or would like to know more let us know by emailing cheif@ghavfd.org
