Altadena Heritage is dedicated to helping our community rebuild after devastating fires, focusing on fire-resilient designs and preserving the unique architectural character of our area. We aim to ensure everyone has the opportunity to rebuild and will host workshops, talks, and community events to support this effort. Join us in coming together to assist our neighbors and restore the community we cherish.

The Wildfire Prepared Home designation program enables homeowners to take preventative measures for their home and yard to protect against wildfire

People learning and working together are the foundation of fire adaptation. FAC Net invests in people and in place-based efforts to change relationships with fire.

Protect your home and neighborhood as well as your family’s safety. The Firewise USA^® program is here to help you get started.
