The Newfoundland and Labrador Community Wildfire Prevention and Mitigation Program is a community approach to wildfire resilience that helps identify and reduce wildfire risks. The program supports local risk assessments, fuel management planning, and mitigation activities.

The program strengthens community-level emergency preparedness by providing guidance to property owners to help them protect their homes from wildfires.

Communities are encouraged to apply for funding to develop Community Wildland Fire Resiliency Plans. These plans will incorporate education, emergency planning, vegetation management, and other principles to implement wildfire prevention and mitigation projects at a community level.
