When faced with a fire, flood or other crisis, many First Nation communities suffer avoidable losses because they:
Didn’t receive emergency
management training
Aren’t equipped with the basic resources to protect community
Couldn’t access finances to
have a local leader dedicated to a specialized role
FNESS All Hazard Response helps you lay the
groundwork to manage a crisis independently.
We help First Nation communities find their way through the practical and financial reality of emergency response. When you feel overlooked because your situation falls outside the standard guidelines, we’ll do everything we can to connect you with the resources you need.

Your All Hazard Response Team
FNESS has a long-standing, respectful relationship with BC’s First Nation communities. We understand how often you hear “no” when facing a crisis and in need of assistance. Your people, needs and values matter to us. We’re here to help in any way we can with guidance, advocacy and training so you can experience a smooth operation tapping into our years of experience and training. When the barriers feel overwhelming, we’re here to help you get to “yes.”
Lead confidently through
challenging times.
Proactive leaders want to stand prepared to manage an emergency. To do that, you need access to effective training and resources before a crisis strikes, and support during response. The problem is BC’s First Nation communities often lack the capacity and opportunities they need to prepare for, manage and respond to emergency events. That missing knowledge base leaves you and your members feeling insecure and at greater risk of loss.
At FNESS, we see how discouraging it is for leaders to feel under-equipped. So our All Hazard Response Department is committed to building empowering partnerships that help Nations get more of the support they need before, during and after an incident.
Contact our office to start working together and bring your members the training you need. Let’s create a safer future and an empowering partnership for the long run.
