SALEM, Ore. – The Oregon Office of State Fire Marshal is hosting an educational webinar on upcoming grant programs for community wildfire preparedness programs set to launch later this fall. These grants will give local community leaders, Oregon counties, fire service agencies, and organizations additional support to create defensible space and prepare their communities for wildfire. With the increase in wildfire impacts on communities in Oregon, the Oregon State Fire Marshal (OSFM) is thrilled to offer these upcoming grant opportunities to assist local governments and organizations in increasing wildfire preparedness in Oregon. The webinar will cover the upcoming community preparedness grants, examples of successful projects, and steps Oregonians can take to create defensible space around their home.
