Minnesota State Fire Chiefs Association

Minnesota State Fire Chiefs Association (MSFCA) is a professional, member-driven organization, committed to representing the interests of fire departments, chiefs, command staff, officers and firefighters throughout the great State of Minnesota.

Just as the fire service is founded on the core philosophy of service to others, our Association is focused on providing for the members who are committed to the long-term health and sustainability of the Minnesota fire service. MSFCA focuses on developing current and future leaders by providing the best training, education and professional development opportunities available so they can continue to serve their communities with the utmost honor and pride.

Thank you to Minnesota Firefighter Initiative, a 4-Bugle Sponsor of the MSFCA! 

The Minnesota Firefighter Initiative (MnFIRE) provides Minnesota’s firefighters with the tools they need to prioritize and protect their health. MnFIRE has made great strides in advocating for Minnesota’s 20,000 firefighters, and manages the state’s Hometown Heroes Assistance Program (HHAP), the leading firefighter health and wellness initiative in the United States. The HHAP includes an assistance program with expanded emotional trauma resources, a critical illness policy and ongoing health and wellness training – provided to all active volunteer, paid-on-call, part-time and full-time Minnesota firefighters at no cost to them or their department. To learn more, call 888-784-6634 or visit mnfireinitiative.com/hhap/.

All Minnesota firefighters and their partners/spouses are also invited to register for the 2025 Firefighter Health Forum presented by MnFIRE on January 25 at Grand Casino Mille Lacs. The conference brings together the greater fire service community for meaningful discussions, powerful speakers and actionable sessions around the most critical health issues facing Minnesota firefighters. Attendees can choose from two breakout session options: LivingWorks safeTALK suicide prevention training or general firefighter health training. Learn more and register here.

We appreciate MnFIRE's continued support of the MSFCA!
