Regional Wildfire & Landscape Resilience Grants

CAL FIRE’s Climate and Energy Program administers Regional Wildfire and Landscape Resilience Grants to support regional partnerships working to improve the health of California’s natural landscapes and the safety of its communities. Funded through the California Climate Bond (Proposition 4), the program invests in collaborative, landscape-scale projects that reduce wildfire risk, improve forest and landscape resilience, and build local and regional capacity.
