Evans Valley Community Resource Center

An ADA-accessible hub for health, safety, and community resilience

The Evans Valley Community Resource Center is a community-led effort to expand the existing Evans Valley Fire District #6 station into a fully ADA-accessible gathering place that strengthens health, safety, and connection for Evans Valley and surrounding rural communities before, during, and after emergencies.

Why This Matters

Evans Valley lacks a fully ADA-accessible public meeting space. Seniors, people with disabilities, and rural families face barriers to services and support.
During emergencies such as wildfire, extreme heat, smoke, or severe weather, the current facility cannot adequately support coordination or recovery.
The Evans Valley Community Resource Center addresses these gaps by building onto the existing fire station footprint.

What We Are Building

A 4,136 square foot expansion of the existing Evans Valley Fire District #6 station that includes:

Flexible community meeting and training space
Fully ADA-accessible entrances and restrooms
Space for healthcare and social service partners
Emergency coordination and recovery functions

This approach strengthens an existing public safety facility while minimizing new land use.

Community Impact

The Center will provide:

The first fully ADA-accessible public space in Evans Valley
A trusted emergency coordination and recovery hub
Space for community-based health and wellness programs
Reduced access barriers for rural residents
A central place for education, preparedness, and connection

Who We Serve

The Center will serve Evans Valley and nearby rural communities, including:

Seniors and people with disabilities
Families and youth
Residents impacted by wildfire and severe weather

Leadership and Partners

The project is led by Evans Valley Fire District #6 with support from regional healthcare partners, including Jackson Care Connect. These partnerships align with Coordinated Care Organization priorities focused on health equity, access, and prevention.
