About Us
  

The Shoshone County Fire Prevention Cooperative was started in 1987 with a federal grant and is located in the beautiful Silver Valley of North Idaho.  It is made up of individuals from county fire districts, volunteer fire departments and wildland fire agencies within the Silver Valley.

 

The co-op's primary focus is:  Fire Prevention through Education!  Most of the co-op activity is directed towards children because young children are more likely to be injured in a fire than adults.  They were also a major cause of wildland fires in our area at the time the co-op was formed. This Silver Valley partnership of agencies, departments and individuals pool their resources to accomplish prevention activities from Rose Lake to Mullan.
