The national Firewise Communities program is a multi-agency effort designed to reach beyond fire service by involving homeowners, community leaders, planners, developers, and others in the effort to protect people, property, and natural resources from the risk of wildland fire - before a fire starts.

Firewise You Can Use is a series of interactive modules to help you prepare your home for wildfire season.  On the same website, check out Resources for the Homeowner for checklists and information on construction materials, landscaping, watering and more.   Go to the Firewise link to learn more.
