Firewise.org is full of useful information. It can be found in places like library, catalog, and community stories. Here are some other sections of the site you may not know about that are worth investigating.

1. Publications

Each quarter, we publish three useful periodicals--the Firewise Newsletter, Wildfire News and Notes, and the Firewise How-To Guide.

2. Interactive Modules

The site's Firewise You Can Use section is full of interactive modules that were especially designed to make learning how to be Firewise even more fun and interesting.

3. The Learning Center

The online courses available in the Firewise Learning Center were created and approved by the National Wildfire Coordinating Group for use by the Firewise Communities program. If you want to do some in-depth learning, you will enjoy this area.

4. Specific Questions Answered

Do you have a Firewise question? Send it, directly to us through the site, and we'll be happy to answer, normally within a day or so.

5. Fire-resistant Plant Lists

Plant lists for many states can help you select the right landscaping options for your home.

6. Online Curricula

If you want to teach others about wildfire safety, this is the area for you.

7. Public Service Announcements

The Firewise Communities team has introduced new public service announcements and b-roll footage to promote Firewise concepts visually through the media.

8. Monthly Chats

Firewise chats are a great way to participate in an ongoing dialog with others. Firewise Communities chats follow a specific protocol. Chat organizers commit to limiting the chat time to one hour. They make every effort to begin the chat promptly. For the first half hour, the moderators ask questions of the guests who have been invited to present specific information to you---the audience. For the second half hour, chatting is completely open and unstructured, although the subject matter is limited to Firewise Communities subject matter.

9. MyFirewise

The Firewise Communities/USA Social Network is a network of Fire professionals, government agencies and concerned homeowners throughout the US. Join the conversation, ask questions, organize events, share multimedia files, and much more.
