Santa Clara Fire Safe Council

The Santa Clara County FireSafe Council (SCCFSC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to educating and assisting homeowners and landowners in wildfire-prone communities in Santa Clara County and parts of Santa Cruz County. They collaborate with CAL FIRE, Santa Clara County Fire, regional fire districts, public agencies, non-profits, businesses, and private landowners to implement protective measures and increase wildfire survivability, such as developing shaded fuel breaks. SCCFSC's work builds safer and stronger communities, providing valuable education, community camaraderie, and recognition through the Firewise USA program.

They provide assessments, chipping programs, defensible space inspections, and home ignition zone assessments to enhance fire safety. Their efforts have received praise from residents and organizations, who appreciate the council's commitment to reducing wildfire risk and creating safer neighborhoods. SCCFSC relies on grants and donations to carry out its mission and is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
