SERVING AND BUILDING STRONG RELATIONSHIPS
Santa Clara County Firefighters Local 1165 has been proudly serving the communities of Campbell, Cupertino, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, Redwood Estates, Saratoga, and various unincorporated areas throughout Santa Clara County since 1954. We have built a strong relationship with the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors, collaborating to ensure the safest working conditions for our employees and the highest quality service for the communities we serve.
Political Advocacy and Firefighter Safety
Our involvement in the political process reflects our commitment to advocating for firefighter safety, working conditions, and other firefighter-related concerns. In affiliation with the IAFF and CPF, our executive board members make annual trips to Washington D.C. and Sacramento, lobbying our representatives for the well-being of firefighters, their families, and the communities we serve.
A Legacy of Service and Unity
At Local 1165, we follow a path forged by our past members, remaining united in our mission. Our first president, Bill Deal, encapsulated our ethos: “We are a non-striking union interested only in the betterment of working conditions and the security of our jobs and our department.” These words, nearly 70 years on, continue to guide us.
The love and passion we have for our profession and for one another provide the strength and motivation for whatever lies ahead. By carrying the torch handed down to us, we ensure the continued excellence of our service, our unity as a membership, and our unique opportunities to serve our communities.
