Associate

Associate Members are a group of volunteers assisting the Leander Fire Department and community in various ways. They provide rehabilitation services to the firefighters and on-scene crew, including; hydration, rest schedules, accountability and assist EMS crews during emergencies. They assist in making sure all personnel are able to perform their job safely while in extreme circumstances. They also provide full rehabilitation support during training programs.

The Associates also help staff local community event functions including the Leander Fire Department Fall Fun Festival, Firefighter for a Day, Fire Station Birthday Parties and other community outreach events. The Cadet and Citizens Fire Academy graduations are hosted by the Associates as well.

This is a chance to serve your community and become part of a family that makes Leander a safer place.

Associates meet on a loose every other month schedule with the option of attending Firefighter or EMS training as well as VFD board meetings. Position related training is provided to members. No prior experience is required, just an appreciation of the community and the fire department and a willingness to help. All volunteers represent our department therefore we do have an application process, but if you have a heart for volunteering, please join us! We can use many talents here at LFD!
