Fire Emergency Responders in Divernon

We respond to every fire threat within minutes

Divernon Fire Protection District

The Divernon Community Fire Department was established in 1900. In 1956 the Divernon Fire Protection District was formed by voter approval, and it provided expanded coverage to the Glenarm area and parts of Ball and Auburn Townships.

We push ourselves for excellence when it comes to protecting our community. Our goal is emergency response with the highest quality training and resources available.

All fire personnel receive the most advanced fire and rescue training and are provided with state-of-the-art equipment and apparatus.
