What Is This Program?

The Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) provides funding and scientific support to help land managers better understand and address wildland fire, hazardous fuels, and the recovery of fire‑affected ecosystems. Created by Congress in 1998, the program is a partnership among six federal agencies and is designed to meet the evolving needs of fire managers, practitioners, and policymakers at every level. JFSP emphasizes strong collaboration between scientists and on‑the‑ground managers to ensure research results are practical, accessible, and useful to the wildland fire community. The program also helps coordinate related research efforts to improve efficiency and reduce duplication. In addition to funding studies, JFSP shares the latest fire science through publications, webinars, workshops, field tours, and other activities that connect researchers and land managers and support informed decision‑making. Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), also known as Bipartisan Infrastructure Act (BIL), appropriated funds to be expended for Research and Development related projects, specifically Joint Fire Science related projects.
