Los Angeles City Firefighters Association (LAFFA) had been the local representative to the California State Firefighters Association (CSFA) for over 98 years. Participation included attending the annual conference, and having members on the CSFA Board to provide input into the needs of our membership and shape the California fire service.
Additionally, LAFFA has honored our own firefighters for over 50 years by hosting the “Annual Firefighter of The Year” luncheon that recogonizes members that have gone above and beyond the call of duty for our members.
Lastly, LAFD rank and LAFFA continues to focus on the safety, training and education and other needs of our members.
Monthly membership meetings are held on the first payday of each month via Zoom meetings (Covid-19 social distancing) or at the Los Angeles Police Academy Cafe when in-person meetings resume. Breakfast is provided for those who attend in person.
Please call 1(833)522-3321 for further information on the association.
If we have any members who also served in the military, The Firemen's Grapevine magazine wants to hear from you! 🇺🇸

Check in on your colleagues. We are all in this together.🎗️ As we observe #NationalRecoveryMonth and #SuicidePreventionMonth, the #IAFF is committed to raising awareness around the mental health challenges #firefighters face and the tools available to help.
Through our webinars and resources, we explore key risk factors and offer strategies to address them. One of the most powerful tools is peer support.
Peer support provides:
✅ A bridge to care and recovery
✅ Increased connection
✅ A proven way forward in reducing suicide risk
Together, we can break the silence, reduce stigma, and strengthen the fire service community.
