About the collaboratives
Community FireSmart and Resiliency Collaboratives (CFRCs) were initiated by the BC FireSmart Committee in 2021 to increase partner and agency collaboration and support FireSmart activities that align with the seven FireSmart disciplines across the province.
It takes the collaborative efforts of multiple partners working together to achieve wildfire resilient communities. A CFRC provides for organized collaboration under a scalable format and may include local fire departments, First Nations and/or local government staff and elected officials as well as provincial government organizations and industry representatives.
The Community Firesmart and Resiliency Collaborative can provide the missing link bringing partners together under a common vision connected to the seven Firesmart disciplines. The purpose of the CFRC is to strengthen collaboration between key partners including local communities and provincial agency staff with stakeholders to coordinate, plan and share information on how to successfully implement the seven FireSmart disciplines at a local, regional or multi-scale level.
