Take a look around. The members of the Arvada Fire Protection District hope you will find helpful information for you and your family. If you should ever need the Arvada Fire Protection District for any reason, whether it is for fire, rescue, hazardous materials, or emergency medical emergencies or prevention services, we strive to offer quick, well-trained and professional assistance.

Even though we train everyday to be ready to respond to your worst day, we know that many of the calls that we respond to are actually preventable by you. Please take a minute to look at our Fire and Life Safety page for valuable information that could greatly reduce the chances of you or your family ever experiencing property loss or a life-threatening situation.

Refresh Arvada Fire
Arvada Fire is trying to win $50,000 to turn a vacant fire station into a Fire & Life Safety Education Center.

Early stimulation sets the stage for how children will learn and react to things throughout life. If we teach them early and effectively about safe behaviors, these behaviors are more likely to stay with them throughout their lives.

It is this theory that is behind the Arvada Fire Protection District’s Fire & Life Safety Education Center.  The Education Center will be a place where kids will be able to have hands-on learning time while reinforcing the lessons that they have learned in our previous presentations. 

We already own the site and buiding, we just need to create the props and exhibits.
