SUMMARY:In-Person - Wildland Fire Assessment Program
DESCRIPTION:The Wildland Fire Assessment Program (WFAP) will teach you how to work-side-by-side with homeowners to identify threats around their property that may be susceptible to wildfires. The WFAP is a joint effort between the National Volunteer Fire Council and the U.S. Forest Service to prepare fire department members with the necessary information\, skills\, and resources to conduct home safety assessments and provide residents with recommendations as to how to make their homes more fire adapted in the wildland-urban interface. Learn more at www.nvfc.org/wfap. \nDay 1: WFAP – classroom session \nUsing Your Community’s Vulnerabilities to Raise Wildfire Awareness:\n“Vulnerability” is not just for talking about our feelings! In terms of community risk reduction (CRR)\, vulnerability is the likelihood that an individual or group will suffer harm or loss from a hazardous situation\, environment\, or event. CRR specifically defines 5 types of vulnerability as they relate to hazards: human\, social\, economic\, environmental\, and political. All CRR models use those vulnerability types to determine high-risk areas in a community\, and who\nis at most risk from the hazards that exist. We can apply those vulnerability types to our own communities and personalize the risk that wildfire presents for different populations in our response areas. By doing so\, we will raise community awareness of the dangers and long-term damages of wildfire\, in turn helping our community members to embrace mitigation efforts and protection plans.
