History of PPFCC
The current Pikes Peak Fire Chiefs Council was formed in the early 90's as the Pikes Peak Chiefs Forum. The groups mission was to discuss issues and hear from first response agencies, hospital systems and other stakeholders within the emergency response network.
In 2014, the group decided to explore changing the mission of the group and its structure to better facilitate the needs of the region. After many discussions the group decided for the best interest of the region and the mission needs, the Pikes Peak Chiefs Forum became the Pikes Peak Fire Chiefs Council.
In that change we also became incorporated and a 501c3 as a non-profit organization whose primary mission is to address, discuss and develop the needs of our fire service community within El Paso County and provide resources and system improvements for the benefit of the citizens and first response personnel working in the county and surrounding area.
The PPFCC is governed by and elected board of three persons, President, Vice-President and a Secretary/ Treasurer. The elected officials serve a three year term,
The PPFCC annually hosts a dinner and silent auction that benefits local public safety charities as well as fire service education and training for the firefighters and officers of the region.
The PPFCC will continue to provide support of education and training as well as addressing fire service issues within the county to maintain and or enhance response capabilities and fulfill the mission to protect life, property and the environment.
