Elk Creek and Inter-Canyon fire started the Community Ambassador Program (CAP) in 2020. Community Ambassadors serve as volunteer liaisons between the Fire Protection Districts and residents, increasing awareness of wildfire risk and forest health issues in our area. Ambassadors link residents to trusted information, community resources and help organize community mitigation projects to reduce wildfire risk around homes and in neighborhoods.
Community Ambassadors live in the communities (Planning Units) they support and are eager to connect with you. Please use the map to identify your Ambassador and contact them to find out how to get involved.
By connecting with your Ambassador, you can:
Discover what actions you can take to protect your home and family from a wildfire.
Learn what your neighbors are doing to protect the larger community and how to join them.
Get insight into the Fire Protection District and the services they provide to protect our community.
If your neighborhood does not yet have an Ambassador, and you are interested in joining the program, contact:
The Division partners with a non-profit called Rotary Wildfire Ready whose mission is to increase wildfire awareness and preparedness in our communities.
