Wildfire Resilience Week

In partnership with Mono and Inyo Counties, Whitebark Institute will be hosting a week-long series of events across the Eastern Sierra from May 30 - June 8 to help cultivate wildfire resilient communities using effective wildfire risk reduction strategies. The events during Wildfire Resilience Week offer a diverse range of opportunities for engagement and education, both in person and online. From informative discussions to hands-on demonstrations, the goal is to equip residents with realistic and actionable steps to protect themselves and their homes from wildfires, while at the same time fostering collective action within the community. Residents, community members, and local leadership are encouraged to participate in as many events as possible to gain a comprehensive understanding of wildfire resilience strategies and to connect with fellow residents and experts in the field.
