Colorado is home to 418 fire departments, yet there is a pressing need for approximately 3,500 additional Volunteer Emergency Responders to ensure comprehensive protection for all communities. In rural areas of Colorado, both citizens and current firefighters face increased risks due to a shortage of Volunteer Firefighters. 

 

To address this critical gap, VolunteerFirefighter.org and the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) Grant Program is committed to recruiting volunteers across several counties, including Routt, Delta, Otero, Eagle, Mesa, and Teller.
