Community outreach
At the heart of OCFA is our commitment to the communities we serve. We strive to build lasting relationships by providing resources, education, and support that empower residents to take an active role in fire safety. Through collaboration, we are fostering stronger, more resilient neighborhoods that are prepared for whatever comes their way.
Fire Station Tours
Guidelines:
Note: These are active fire stations, so tours may be paused or rescheduled if emergency calls occur.
