Abstract
The aims of the study are to describe the current state, identify topics of importance, and suggest implementation strategies for tailored nutrition education for the WLFFs. Focus groups were conducted and survey data was collected to gather qualitative and quantitative data from a sample of WLFFs. Constant comparative strategy was used to generate themes from transcripts. Wildland firefighters showed interest in early-introduced, multimodal, and specific nutrition education tailored to the demands of the WLFF. Study findings provide nutrition topics of interest and importance to WLFFs and may be used to develop educational materials.
