We Are San Diego County's Fire Safe Council

From the forested mountaintops of Warner Springs to the coatal urban canyons of Chula Vista we proudly serve the amazing variety of ecosystems and communities found in San Diego County.

A Network Dedicated to Fire Safety

San Diego County has over 50 community Fire Safe Councils, the most out of any county in the state. One of our functions as the county-wide Fire Safe Council is to support community Fire Safe Councils with their programs and to help new Fire Safe Councils form.

Free Wildfire Home Assessments

We’ve conducted hundreds of free, educational, non-regulatory defensible space and home-hardening assessments for homeowners in select communities of the county. This year we are serving Crest, Bonita, Spring Valley, Fallbrook, and east Chula Vista. Our service areas change every year so be sure to check that you are within our area when applying.

Defensible Space Assistance for Elderly and Disabled Homeowners

After receiving a home assessment we can assist residents who are physically and financially unable to create their own defensible space.
