The province is providing five million dollars through its Community Emergency Preparedness Fund to help fund 113 projects.
The investment is through the emergency support services equipment and training stream.
Several communities and First Nations will benefit from the funding to assist people evacuated from their homes during emergencies.
This includes strengthening emergency response in Fort St. James and Nak’azdli Whut’en by developing a new program and building capacity, with a focus on training and mutual support.
Since 2017, the province has committed $369 million dollars into the Community Emergency Preparedness Fund.
