DENVER -- (Business Wire)

In partnership with Colorado Interactive and the Statewide Internet Portal Authority, the team at the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control (DFPC) developed and launched a new website focused on innovation, efficiency, and transparency, which can be found at http://www.colorado.gov/dfpc. The structure, content, and functionality focus on providing critical information about fire prevention, safety, aerial technology, firefighter training and career advancement, current wildfires, and relief efforts.

“We are excited and proud to launch a new website that gives users easier access to the online services and updates they need," stated Caley Fisher, DFPC Public Information Officer. "Our new site will give us the opportunity to fulfill our mission of safeguarding those that live, work, learn, and play in Colorado, by reducing threats to lives, property, and the environment.”

Colorado Interactive built the site infrastructure on the Colorado.gov Drupal platform, delivering the security, accessibility, and functionality necessary to meet the needs of DFPC and the citizens they serve. The new homepage features integration with the @COStateFire Twitter, allowing time sensitive information regarding current wildfires from local and federal partners to be immediately shared with citizens across the state. The website also features an integration with the Colorado Wildfire Watch app enabling users to receive alerts and updates on wildfires across the state.

These website features make the DFPC website a place where citizens of Colorado are able to access valuable information and interact with DFPC anytime, anywhere. Fisher commented, “We value the collaboration with the Statewide Internet Portal Authority and Colorado Interactive and look forward to seeing this innovative site in action."
