Proudly serving the tri-county area since 1984 to promote wildfire risk awareness, mitigation, and community safety.

Firesafe Spotlight Messages

This fire season, were you prepared or lucky? Fire behavior is determined by fuel, weather, and topography. Of these, you can only influence the fuels on your property! The objective is to treat fuels so that when a wildfire burns, it is less severe and more easily suppressed. Sign up here for your FREE wildfire risk assessment to learn more.

Wildfire is a part of living in Montana. Learn more about how you can co-exist with wildfire by watching Living Safely with Wildfire. Also, learn about wildfire issues across the U.S. in a video published by Vox, Why Fire Season Doesn’t End. Remember, you do not have to live in a forest to be in a wildfire! Helena is a community at risk. Learn how city residents can become “wildfire ready” in Helena: A Community at Risk.
