In partnership with the Hoopa Wildland Fire Department, this spring a group of Hoopa residents re-vitalized the Hoopa Fire Safe Council, which had been incorporated as a Tribal non-profit several years ago, but hadn't continued to organize. The group identified two primary goals: to encourage residents to create defensible space around their homes; and to encourage residents to work with the fire department to safely conduct small cultural burns on their property. The group needs a strategic plan to guide activities going forward.
