The Eastern Sierra Community Wildfire Defense Grant supports locally driven efforts to reduce wildfire risk, protect communities, and strengthen landscape resilience across the Eastern Sierra. Through coordinated planning, fuels reduction, and cross-jurisdictional collaboration, this initiative helps align federal, state, tribal, and local partners around shared priorities for wildfire preparedness and response. By investing in proactive stewardship and community-based solutions, the grant advances safer communities, healthier forests, and a more resilient Eastern Sierra.
