Community volunteer preparedness, coordination, and initial response to wildfire threats.
The Society’s Initial Response Team coordinates local volunteers, provides wildfire preparedness, and works with BC Wildfire Service and the Thompson-Nicola Regional District. Team roles include suppression, logistics, support, and communications; training is provided. This is a community volunteer initiative, not a listed municipal fire department or a 911 call-in service. Contact the Society to ask about current activity and opportunities to participate.
Federal community sentence supervision for people on parole, statutory release or long-term supervision orders.
Correctional Service Canada’s Kamloops Parole Office supervises people serving community sentences who are on parole, statutory release or long-term supervision orders, helping ensure they follow their release conditions. 211 British Columbia lists Monte Lake among the office’s service communities.
