Friday, February 9, 2018 from 11am – 2 pm, Fire Safe Marin will host a community workshop to help Marin neighborhoods organize to achieve Firewise USA recognition. Learn about the benefits and challenges of Firewise recognition for your neighborhood, while preparing a plan to help your community surviive a wildfire. We’ll have representatives from every Marin fire department, land management agencies like MMWD and Open Space, PG&E, and others to help you understand Marin’s wildfire risk and develop a plan to address the risk.
The Firewise Communities/USA Recognition Program is a process that empowers neighbors to work together in reducing their wildfire risk. Join the growing network of more than 1,028 recognized Firewise communities (12 neighborhoods in Marin!) taking action and ownership in preparing and protecting their homes against the threat of wildfire.
