We protect, preserve, and restore public safety through programs and services of the Lesser Slave Regional Fire Service, 911, and Emergency Disaster Response Systems. We do this with a staff of 125 dedicated paid, on call, volunteer fire fighters, and nine fulltime staff, in partnership with community agencies, social partnerships, and a network of provincial and federal departments and emergency management agencies.

The headquarters is located in the Town of Slave Lake. It has a full time Fire Chief, Deputy Fire Chief, Administrative Assistant, and a Maintenance Officer. As being a Regional Fire Department, it also has a full time Deputy Chief of Rural Operations, and four members of the FireSmart Crew.
