Program details

How it works

The Kentucky Firewise USA Program encourages local solutions for wildfire safety by involving homeowners, community leaders, planners, developers, firefighters, and others. The state page points homeowners to wildfire-preparedness information, including defensible space, landscaping, vehicular access, and community action planning.

What the service includes

The program page links homeowners to wildfire-hazard assessment and educational resources. It also points to the Woodland Home Wildfire Hazard Assessment and other Firewise materials.

Money

The public page does not describe a cash benefit for individual homeowners under the program itself. The grant component is separate and listed elsewhere.

How to use it

Homeowners can use the Firewise materials to understand wildfire risk and mitigation options for homes in or near wooded areas.
