CAMARILLO — The Ventura County Fire Department announces Firewise USA®Communities in Ventura County and we invite you to the workshop. Firewise USA®reduces wildfire risks in communities by providing a collaborative framework to help neighbors get organized, find direction, and take action to decrease the ignition potential of their homes and property. The Firewise USA program is administered by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and is part of Ventura County Fire’s efforts to ensure communities are prepared for wildfire. A Firewise USA® recognized community may be eligible for insurance discounts.
