  2. Cal Fire has recognized the Ventura County Fire Protection District as a fire risk reduction community, effective now through July 2028. This is important because (a) VCFPD is the agency responsible for fire prevention and response in Thousand Oaks and (b) recognition brings priority consideration for Cal Fire’s Wildfire Prevention Grants and helps inform wildfire risk ratings.

  4. "CAL FIRE Announces $10 Million In Available Funding for Tribal-Led Wildfire Resilience and Restoration Projects

    Advancing wildfire resilience, forest health, and cultural use of fire.

    Sacramento, CA – The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) is announcing the opening of a $10 million Tribal Wildfire Resilience Grant solicitation. These grants will support California Native American tribes in managing ancestral lands, implementing and promoting Traditional Ecological Knowledge for wildfire resilience, and creating wildfire safety projects for Tribal and non-Tribal communities.

    Funded through Proposition 4 (California Climate Bond), Tribal Wildfire Resilience Grants fund projects in cultural and prescribed fire, fuels reduction, forest resilience, restoration of culturally important ecosystems, Traditional Ecological Knowledge, training, environmental compliance, and developing forest/fire management plans. These actions foster the future wellbeing of resilient ecosystems and tribal communities while also helping to mitigate climate change, protect communities from fire risk, strengthen rural economies, revitalize traditional land management practices, and improve California’s water resources and air quality...

    Concept Proposals will be accepted beginning Wednesday, July 8, 2026, via the Tribal Wildfire Resilience Grants webpage and must be submitted no later than 12:00 PM on Wednesday September 8, 2026. Full applications are expected to be invited back in October and due in December 2026."

  6. IONE, CA — Yesterday, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) again partnered with the Torlakson Whole Child Institute (TWCI) to host a middle school career exploration field trip at CAL FIRE’s Ione Training Center. This is the second collaboration between the two organizations, continuing the shared mission to spark early interest in career paths in the fire service that do not require a traditional college degree.

    The Ione Training Center welcomed students from Magnolia Intermediate School in Grass Valley who participated in hands-on activities and interacted directly with CAL FIRE professionals from various fields, which included Fire Technology, Emergency Dispatch, Building Trades, and Natural Resource Management. Each activity offered practical insight into the skills, responsibilities, and training associated with each field. Throughout the day, additional CAL FIRE professionals, from administrative, culinary, heavy equipment mechanics, heavy equipment operators, and logistics, lead the groups, answered questions, and shared their experiences.
