Abstract
The purpose of this guide is to assist communities in monitoring and evaluating their CWPPs to
strengthen future implementation. The steps in this guide outline an effective process for
evaluating how well communities have addressed the goals and objectives of their CWPPs and
updating their plans. The Guide recommends collaborative strategies to bring together project
partners to conduct the evaluation, gather relevant data, and write the evaluation report.
This evaluation will draw out the experiences and lessons learned in collaborative efforts among
community members, local government, municipalities, land management, and state agencies,
thereby pinpointing the key accomplishments and challenges facing the community in
implementing their fire plan. Benefits of an evaluation may also include identifying strategies
that help communities to plan for and reduce the risks of other natural disasters.
