            On behalf of the San Diego County Fire Chiefs Association, proudly representing all of the fire agencies serving all of the communities and citizens of San Diego County, I want to welcome and thank you for visiting our website!

            As fire service professionals and leaders, we are motivated and committed to providing the highest level of safety and service to the individual and collective communities. Preparing for, responding to and recovering from an emergency incident often crosses jurisdictional boundaries and involves multiple organizations. We recognize and understand the fact that we must work together and that the foundation of collaboration is built on trust and relationships. The leaders of the fire service agencies in San Diego County are committed to amplifying our effectiveness through active partnerships.

            In addition, the San Diego County Fire Chiefs are unwavering in our collective efforts to actively address the overall health of our firefighters and fire service professionals through mental health engagement, professional development, comprehensive wellness, and aggressive cancer prevention efforts.

            The San Diego County Fire Chiefs are honored to lead and serve together providing extraordinary fire, rescue, and emergency related services for all our citizens, communities, and cities throughout San Diego County.

            Thank you for taking the time to visit our website and stay safe!
