Comprised of dedicated volunteers, the MCVFRA functions as a collaborative body, uniting these individual departments under a common banner. The MCVFRA focuses on improving fire and rescue services across Montgomery County. The association actively engages in discussions and provides recommendations to the Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Commission, advocating for policies and initiatives that enhance the safety and well-being of the community.
