Pechanga Fire Department Mission Statement
The mission of the Pechanga Fire Department is to minimize the loss of life and property resulting from fire, medical emergencies, and other disasters through prevention, education, fire suppression, emergency medical service and emergency preparedness, while maintaining fiscal responsibility.

The Pechanga Fire Department (PFD) protects the citizens and infrastructures of the Pechanga Reservation. The PFD keeps Pechanga Tribal members, our elders, our children and their homes safe from the ravages of California's wildfires.
From inception, the volunteer fire department took about a year to become fully operational. Once established, Pechanga residents and employees’ sense of protection and security for their families, homes, workplace, and heritage strengthened.
Through discipline and dedication to prevent fires and provide emergency medical services, the Pechanga Fire Department leads by example, continuing to build professionally, efficiently, and with respect to the history of the Tribe.
As of 2022, the Pechanga Fire Department has dedicated more than 25 years of excellence, with future goals to continuously advance the department as the best Tribal Fire Department in the United States and across Indian Country.
