The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service awarded a $661,560 State & Private Forestry Cooperative Fire Assistance (CFDA 10.698) project grant to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL Fire) on August 23, 2024. The grant will fund a statewide project to equip and train local and rural volunteer firefighters in California through December 30, 2025. As the prime recipient, CAL Fire may work with sub-recipients such as The Pacific Forest Trust and Northcoast Regional Land Trust on specific conservation and forestry management projects under this grant. The objectives of the State & Private Forestry Cooperative Fire Assistance program align with this grant, supporting activities to enhance forest resilience, promote fire-adapted communities, and protect lives and property from wildfire risks across non-federal forest and rural lands.
