Public Safety
Licensed First Responders.
The Safe Community Project operates two public safety divisions in Southern California. These divisions are staffed by trained, contract first responder qualified members. There are a combination of EMT-B, EMT-D, and Wildland Firefighter qualifications within these teams. Our public safety teams work in collaboration with area fire departments.
Mission Statement.
The Safe Community Project delivers critical life saving fire and disaster preparedness initiatives to students, families, and older adults living in California. We’re building more resilient communities and better prepared residents.
