This grant from the U.S. Forest Service is for supporting and implementing the National Cohesive Wildland Fire Management Strategy across the Eastern Region’s Midwestern and Northeastern States. It aims to foster shared stewardship and strategic investments to co-manage wildfire risk. The initiative focuses on two critical goals: restoring and maintaining landscapes so they are resilient to fire-related disturbances, and creating fire-adapted communities where human populations and infrastructure can withstand wildfires without loss of life or property. This competitive request seeks to achieve positive wildfire management outcomes at appropriate scales within the specified regions.
