SAFE Neighborhoods training available



Announcement from John Flynt, Community Preparedness Coordinator for SLC
http://www.safeutah.org/register.htm

Hello Everyone,

The school year is upon us and we need to give the SAFE Neighborhoods program a big push to educate and encourage Salt Lake City residents to play a part in making sure they are as prepared as possible for a catastrophic event.

Below are two lists of dates that have been set to provide different levels of the SAFE Neighborhoods program training. The first list is of the specific schools listing the level of training and date that will be provided at each. The second list is of training sessions I have scheduled to hold at the new Public Safety Building.

This program started as a pilot program for Salt Lake City but I am pleased to say that as of this year will be implemented throughout the Wasatch Front and by next year, potentially state wide. Please help promote the program as much as you can as it is quickly becoming a critical component of state-wide disaster preparedness planning. This being the case, we are currently developing a new interactive website and will be updating fliers and other literature over the next couple of weeks. I will send out notices and updates as they are completed.

If you have distribution/contact lists for groups with which you communicate and/or coordinate regularly, please distribute this information to them and consider sharing them with my office (Emergency Management).
