Our department envisions ongoing partnerships with other tribal departments, as well as outside public safety agencies, to promote an effective “All Risk” emergency response capability. Both Morongo Casino Resort and Spa and Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel are hosting job fairs this week to fill hundreds of open positions. The Morongo Fire Department’s vision is to implement and maintain innovative programs and strategies for life-saving education and training to the Morongo community. The Morongo Fire Department’s mission is to provide essential emergency and non-emergency services to protect the lives and property of tribal members, descendants, residents, employees, and guests of the Morongo Indian Reservation and to protect the tribe’s historical, environmental, cultural and economic resources.
They respond to calls both on and off of the reservation and is staffed with a Fire Chief, Deputy Chief of Operations, 24 full time all-risk firefighters and an administrative assistant. The Morongo Fire Department is responsible for protecting 110 square miles of reservation land that is comprised of a residential community, tribal enterprises and a 27-story, 44-acre casino.
