Click to Contact The Valley Ranch Firewise Community Board

A Valley Ranch Firewise Committee was established in 2018 to meet the needs of Firewise in our neighborhood.  Valley Ranch has been a part of the Graeagle Fire Protection District (GFPD) Firewise Community since 2010.  However, effective January 18, 2024, Valley Ranch is a nationally recognized Firewise Community entirely separate from the GFPD Firewise Community.

The Firewise USA® recognition program is administered by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and provides a collaborative framework to help neighbors in a geographic area get organized, find direction, and take action to increase the ignition resistance of their homes and community and to reduce wildfire risks at the local level. The Firewise USA program is a part of California’s efforts to ensure communities are prepared against wildfire, and CAL FIRE Office of the State Fire Marshal’s new Community Wildfire Preparedness & Mitigation Division works to assist local communities in receiving this designation.

As part of a nationally recognized Firewise Community (Site), you may be eligible for a discount on your homeowners’ insurance.  Check with your insurance agent or visit The California Department of Insurance site to learn more.
