Wildfire Los Angeles

Take the 2024 Wildfire Survey

We work with amazing partners.

MySafe:LA is able to delivery our various fire safety and resilience initiatives in part due to the remarkable cadre of partners who share our vision for a safer and more resilient Los Angeles.

Our Partners

LOS ANGELES CITY FIRE DEPARTMENT

The Los Angeles City Fire Department is an all risk life safety organization. Nearly 1,000 firefighters are on duty at 106 fire stations, protecting more than four million souls. The Department responds to on average 1,200 emergency responses per day, and often transports more than 550 people to local hospitals during a 24-hour period. The relationship with MySafe:LA is a strong example of a successful private/public collaboration.

LOS ANGELES COUNTY FIRE DEPARTMENT

The Los Angeles County Fire Department is responsible for providing fire protection to more than four million residents living in 59 cities and all unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County.

Together with the Board of Supervisors (Board), Chief Executive Office, and 37 County Departments, we continue to partner and collaborate on the many challenging issues confronting our communities (i.e., homelessness, mental health, youth programs, etc.).

LOS ANGELES POLICE DEPARTMENT

It is the mission of the Los Angeles Police Department to safeguard the lives and property of the people we serve, to reduce the incidence and fear of crime, and to enhance public safety while working with the diverse communities to improve their quality of life. Our mandate is to do so with honor and integrity, while at all times conducting ourselves with the highest ethical standards to maintain public confidence.

NFPA

NFPA delivers information and knowledge through more than 300 consensus codes and standards, research, training, education, outreach and advocacy; and by partnering with others who share an interest in furthering our mission. MySafe:LA aligns with multiple NFPA educational and leadership programs, including classroom training, smoke alarm initiatives, and fire sprinkler awareness.

AMERICAN RED CROSS

The American Red Cross prevents and alleviates human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors. Its purpose is to protect life and health and to ensure respect for the human being. It promotes mutual understanding, friendship, cooperation and lasting peace amongst all peoples.

Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) is the largest (in terms of number of students) public school system in the U.S. state of California. It is the 2nd largest public school district in the United States. Education related to disaster preparedness and fire/life safety is an essential component for every classroom.
