Evergreen Fire/Rescue

What Evergreen Fire/Rescue does

Evergreen Fire/Rescue (EFR), officially the Evergreen Fire Protection District, is a special district under Colorado Revised Statutes that delivers fire suppression, emergency medical services (EMS), and wildland fire mitigation to residents of Jefferson and Clear Creek Counties in the Colorado Front Range foothills. Founded in 1948, the district operates from eight fire stations across its service area and responds to approximately 2,500 emergency calls annually. Its service portfolio spans structural, wildland, and vehicle fire suppression; ALS/BLS EMS; the Community Wildfire Ambassador Program; defensible space and home hardening assessments; slash collection and chipping; burn permits; fire prevention/code compliance; CPR/AED training; and community risk reduction programs including the ECARES community paramedicine program.

The underlying operational technology is conventional emergency-services infrastructure: fire apparatus, EMS vehicles, AEDs distributed across the district (EPAD program), and integrations with LookoutAlert (via Smart911) and Community Connect for emergency notification. EFR offers no public-facing API, SDK, or software product. Its non-core technical layers include an in-house academy for fire and EMS training, a GIS-based Plan Unit lookup tool for residents, and a community website that serves as a resource portal.

EFR is funded primarily through voter-approved property taxes from residents within the district boundary, with ancillary user fees for ambulance transport and burn permits. Home assessments, CPR classes, and community education are provided free. The district is governed by an elected Board of Directors and is not privately owned. Its go-to-market is community-led: residents are simultaneously the funding base and the customer base, engaged through newsletters, social media channels (BlueSky, Instagram, Facebook, Nextdoor), the Rooted in Resilience Speaker Series, and direct outreach via volunteer ambassadors.
