Strategic Work That Reduces Wildfire Risk Across Mesa County

Two Rivers Wildfire Coalition strengthens Mesa County’s wildfire resilience by hosting opportunities for partners, practitioners, and residents to learn, collaborate, and take meaningful action together. Our engagement work includes:

Learning Exchanges

Hands-on, field-based sessions where practitioners explore mitigation challenges, share best practices, and learn from each other’s expertise.

Community Events

Wildfire fairs, neighborhood gatherings, chipping days, and outreach activities that help residents understand risk and take action in their own communities.

Professional Development

Workshops, trainings, and agency-focused sessions designed to grow capacity and strengthen wildfire response and mitigation skills across partner organizations.

Interagency Coordination

Regular meetings and field tours that unite fire departments, land managers, county leadership, conservation districts, and emergency management to plan and implement cohesive, cross-boundary wildfire projects.

Cost-Share, Neighborhood Ambassador, & Firewise Support

We help neighborhoods become Firewise-organized, access funding opportunities, complete community assessments, and receive planning assistance that reduces wildfire risk at the neighborhood scale.
