Backround: LAFD Emergency Response Unit provides important CERT Training Course free of charge to the Los Angeles community and residence 18 years and older. In the event of disaster (brush fire, earthquake, emergency incident) it is usually the local community that become the "first responders" providing immediate assistance. In the past, a green CERT safety helmet and green vest identifying CERT have been provided to community members who complete the CERT Course. Due to funding cuts this basic required equipment is no longer available or provided by LAFD CERT Unit.
Motion: EMS Committee requests the HHWNC board of directors to support the community and LAFD CERT Program by approving funding for the purchase of needed community CERT equipment in the amount of $3,000. CERT Helmets, Vests or CERT Basic Kit.
