New Canaan Fire Department is a public-safety organization based in New Canaan, Connecticut, founded in 1881 as a volunteer fire company. As a combination department, it relies on both career and volunteer firefighters to serve the local community—protecting residents and businesses—and is led by a volunteer chief, with two assistant chiefs (one career, one volunteer) and three appointed commissioners. Its apparatus lineup includes a ladder truck, three engines, a tanker, a light rescue, and a utility pickup, supporting a range of emergency responses. Recent developments include the launch of Community Connect to store vital information for first responders and a collaboration with the Connecticut Fire Chiefs Association on fire-prevention messaging.
