~ Sacramento, California - Governor Gavin Newsom has declared May 4-10, 2025 as "Wildfire Preparedness Week" in an effort to raise awareness and encourage preparedness for the ongoing threat of wildfires in California.
The proclamation, issued today by Governor Newsom, highlights the urgency of the situation in light of the recent January fires in Los Angeles that have underscored the scale and intensity of climate impacts facing the state. With California facing a year-round fire season, it is more important than ever for every person to be prepared for potential wildfires.
In his proclamation, Governor Newsom emphasized the state's efforts to make communities more resilient to wildfires and improve forest health. These efforts include historic investments in forest management and other projects aimed at decreasing catastrophic wildfire risk. The budget for CAL FIRE has nearly doubled and California now boasts the largest aerial firefighting fleet in the world.
Furthermore, Governor Newsom announced that this year's Wildfire Preparedness Week theme is "Building a Fire-Ready Future: Strengthening Our Defenses, Together." This theme emphasizes the importance of both collaborative efforts and individual responsibility in reducing and managing wildfire risk.

Californians are encouraged to take steps such as creating defensible space around homes, hardening homes against fire damage, developing wildfire action plans, and joining Fire Safe Councils and Firewise Communities. These groups work together to regularly assess wildfire risk and prioritize action to address it.
Governor Newsom stressed that all Californians have a vital role to play in protecting themselves, their loved ones, and their communities from wildfires. He urged citizens to visit ReadyForWildfire.org during Wildfire Preparedness Week to learn about steps they can take to prepare for wildfire season and help prevent loss of life and property.
The proclamation also highlights the ongoing focus on developing and maintaining vital projects across the state to protect communities from wildfires. It notes that while only 3% of California's forestland is managed by the state government, 57% is federally managed. Governor Newsom expressed readiness to strengthen federal partnerships in this effort.
In conclusion, Governor Newsom proclaimed May 4-10, 2025 as "Wildfire Preparedness Week" and called upon all Californians to join together in creating a more fire resilient state. The proclamation was signed and sealed on May 4, 2025 by Governor Newsom and Secretary of State Shirley N. Weber, Ph.D.
