Our Role
We are Victoria’s volunteer fire service, operating across the state to reduce the occurrence and impacts of fire and other emergencies
We are a Trusted Authority because we combine our core strengths in:
fire safety
community connectedness
volunteering
Whether delivering community education programs to prevent fires or responding effectively to fires that have occurred, the services we deliver seek to achieve a common vision – Victorian communities that are prepared for and safe from fire
We are a dedicated and skilled team, performing roles beyond fire suppression; educating and engaging the community, helping residents develop fire plans and responding to other emergencies when they happen.
Our valued advice and knowledge in fire behaviour, fire safety, incident management and community preparation adds further strength to Victoria’s trusted and united emergency services sector.
Working with other agencies
Many complex arrangements exist within Victoria regarding responsibilities for fire prevention on different land.
CFA works with Victoria's emergency services to work together to reduce the destructive impact of fire on communities. Learn more about CFA working with other agencies.
