The Ember Alliance helps communities prepare for wildfires, from preplanning to response to the sometimes long recovery period. We also work with public and private groups to conduct prescribed fires to make sure that when wildfires happen, they burn calmly in healthy forests and grasslands that have been burned previously. Wildfires are inevitable – so we need a workforce ready for them. The Ember Alliance is committed to training a workforce to address this challenge. Too long, these valuable blue collar jobs have not reflected the diversity of America, and we work to solve this.
