Cultural Fire Management Council
Humboldt County
CFMC is a non profit organization located on the upper Yurok Reservation. We host two Cultural Burn Training Exchanges (TREX) each year. These events are open to fire fighters, fire practitioners and want-to-be fire practitioners at all skill levels. TREX is an opportunity to increase fire fighter qualifications, gain experience with prescribed burns, learn about the benefits of fire to the ecosystem, and gain insight into Native American world view. CFMC supports and encourages families to reclaim their right to use fire in a good way. We offer community classes on safe burn practices, and opportunities for intergenerational transfer of knowledge.
