Chief's Message
Welcome to the West Lafayette Fire Department (WLFD) website. This site serves as a conduit between our department and the public. Whether you are here to learn more about us, are interested in one of the services we provide, or are thinking about joining our family as a firefighter, we are glad you are here.
WLFD is an all-hazards fire department that has served the West Lafayette community for almost 130 years. As our community has grown and changed, so have we. In addition to responding to the emergency needs of our community, we have expanded our services to include certified car seat technicians and CPR instructors. All of our firefighters are cross-trained as Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and respond from our three stations as non-transport Basic Life Support units.
I am proud to lead the dedicated men and women of WLFD. They are hard working public servants who share our vision of being a progressive fire department dedicated to customer service, professionalism, prevention, and training. Their health and safety is a responsibility I do not take lightly as we work to not only improve our training, facilities, and equipment but also look for ways to improve our mental and physical health.
Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out.
