What Attendees Say About WUI

The IAFC's WUI conference is the premier venue to network with the wildland fire service leaders and innovators in North America and beyond.

Dave DriscollChief (Ret.), Hemet, CA

WUI offers an amazing opportunity to work with Chiefs and Fire Officers that I would normally not have access to. These individuals were very pleased to speak with me and guide me through discussions at different times during the non-session hours.
