Mission

Who We Are
The St. Lucie County Fire District is an independent special district of the State of Florida and operates separately from St. Lucie County, the City of Fort Pierce, and the City of Port St. Lucie. The District is governed by a seven-member Board of Fire Commissioners representing St. Lucie County, the City of Fort Pierce, the City of Port St. Lucie, and the Governor of Florida.
As the largest provider of fire rescue and emergency medical services on Florida's Treasure Coast, the Fire District delivers fire suppression, emergency medical services, air rescue, special operations, emergency communications, community risk reduction, public education, and support services throughout St. Lucie County.
The Fire District manages all aspects of emergency service delivery, including training, fleet maintenance, logistics, information technology, human resources, finance, and administration. This integrated approach ensures efficient operations, effective resource management, and consistent service throughout the county.
