Defensible Space

Plan Today, Protect Tomorrow

Wildfire risks are rising, and preparation has never been more critical. Oregon Defensible Space is here to help Oregonians safeguard their homes and communities through proactive, practical measures.

The Oregon State Fire Marshal's Defensible Space Incentive Program offers eligible homeowners in wildfire-vulnerable communities a $250 payment to support essential fire mitigation projects. Scheduling a free defensible space assessment is easy and ensures your property is better protected from the next wildfire season.

Defensible space—a strategically managed area around your home—can be the deciding factor in preventing embers from igniting your property. By acting now, you can help create a fire-adapted community, reducing risks for everyone.

Join the movement to protect Oregon’s homes, lives, and landscapes. Click here to schedule your free assessment and take the first step toward a safer future. Together, we can face the wildfire challenge with resilience.
