The Community Protection and Wildfire Resilience Act establishes a grant program to fund community-developed plans for wildfire resilience, prioritizing high-risk areas and incorporating strategies for early detection, vulnerable population support, infrastructure strengthening, and defensible space projects. It authorizes \$1 billion annually from 2025-2029 for these grants, and requires reports and studies on federal programs, community certifications for wildfire survivability, and radio communication interoperability during wildfires. The Act also updates the definition of at-risk communities and allows for structure hardening projects under the Community Wildfire Defense Grant Program.
