CFA is one of the world’s largest volunteer-based emergency services. There are over 52,000 volunteer members of which 30,000 are operationally trained and are supported by 900 administrative and support staff.

Situated in Victoria, CFA provides fire and emergency support to 4 million people and 224,000 square kilometres of land. This area includes more than 1 million homes, and covers all of rural Victoria, as well as provincial cities and towns (except State forests and National Parks), outer Melbourne suburbs including key growth suburbs.

Over 1,200 CFA Fire Brigades around Victoria respond to a wide range of emergency incidents 24-hours a day, including bushfires, house fires, industrial fires, road accidents, rescues, chemical spills, floods and other natural disasters. CFA also works closely with local communities to raise awareness about fire safety and plan for bushfires.

Partnerships with national, state and local governments, industry and brigades are essential to the successful operation of CFA. As a community service, CFA brigades are strongly supported by their local communities in responding to Victoria's fire safety and emergency management needs.
