About Us
Mission
Our mission defines our purpose for existence: to partner with our community to proactively reduce risk from fire, illness, injury, and other hazards.
Vision
The district’s vision provides an aspirational goal. To our members, our vision of providing world-class fire & rescue services means:
- Implementation of fiscally sustainable, fire, and rescue services best practices.
- Working with, not simply for the community, we have developed Central Whidbey Island into a safe and resilient place to live and work.
- The community has trust and ownership of its fire and rescue services as we serve with openness and transparency.
Values
CWIFR’s members are committed to a common set of values that define what we stand for and guide our interactions with the community and one another.
Professionalism • Integrity • Compassion • Excellence
We have integrated these values into our recruitment process for volunteers as well as part-time and full-time employees, performance feedback to our members, promotional process, and many other aspects of District operations.
