Wildfire Resilience Program

WRP participants and instructors smile in front of burn piles

 

The Wildfire Resilience Program (WRP) was piloted with instruction by Annie Madden, Asa Voight, and Anthony Blondin; Thea Carlson, Alison Pollack, and Bill Basquin came on board as instructors in subsequent years. The program operates out of the Shone Farm campus of the Santa Rosa Junior College (SRJC) and offers paid internships, college credit, and a Wildfire Resilience certificate in the Natural Resource Management program at SRJC.

We have so far trained eleven cohorts of land stewards. Our next cohort convenes for the Fall 2026 semester via NRM 145A Stewardship Practices for Wildfire Resilience. Send an email to get on our mailing list: epacopac@santarosa.edu
