Homeowners: There is a home hardening grant available through the Division of Fire Prevention and Control (DFPC) from now through April 15, 2024, called the Colorado Wildfire Resilient Homes Grant. This grant intends to help homeowners harden their homes and make them safer, such as replacing your roof with fire resistant material. There is $100,000 in grant funds available through this pilot program that was passed by the CO legislature in 2023.
Homeowners apply directly for this grant: Wildfire Resilient Homes Grant Application (tfaforms.net). A Home Ignition Zone/ Defensible Space assessment is required prior to applying.
