On April 1, 2006, Stockbridge Township Fire Department and Stockbridge Ambulance, Inc. merged to become the Stockbridge Area Emergency Services Authority (SAESA). This authority was formed by Stockbridge, Bunker Hill, Waterloo and White Oak Townships to better unitize funds to serve residents of those areas. Three ambulances, including Advanced Life Support Units, are manned 24 hours, seven days a week with licensed paramedics, specialists, and basic emergency medical technicians.

Twenty eight firefighters including ten medical First Responders, are also on call around the clock. Two pumper trucks, a tanker, a ladder truck, a rescue rig, and three brush trucks are ready to respond to structure fires, field fires, automobile accidents, and hazardous material incidents.
