Thank you for engaging with neighbors about reducing risks, identifying/removing risk reduction barriers, and sharing the importance of safety in our community. I am here to support your efforts.

Neighborhood Ambassador Program
Neighborhood Ambassador Program is a community-approach that leverages volunteers to serve as catalysts within their neighborhoods, encouraging their neighbors to become more aware, active, and prepared to reduce risk within the community. Ambassadors are an internal presence that leads to building community trust and capacity. This allows GFPD to capitalize on preexisting social connections to create physical change within the community.

Host a Neighborhood Walk!
The objective is to discuss three things in person: evacuation, defensible space, and roadside mitigation. First, we meet as a group and do a quick overview of those things then walk and talk, along with providing time for questions. I do not look at every home and offer suggestions on each defensible space but instead look at 2 or 3 to use as examples. I try to keep the walk to one hour or less. This is a good opportunity to ask questions about home hardening and defensible space, and to build wildfire awareness in an environment of fellowship with neighbors.
