Cert Description |
The Lucas County CERT program has trained over 500 volunteers in northwest Ohio since 2003 under an agreement with Owens Commnuity College. There are 473 CERT volunteers registered within Lucas County. Many CERT volunteers attend continuing education training, participate in functional and full-scale disaster exercises and promote volunteer programs at fairs and festivals each year. Many local CERT members volunteered to assist victims of recent flooding in Lucas County and provide support to hurricane stricken regions along the Gulf Coast.
Teen CERT training has been conducted in two school districts adding 89 youth volunteers to our program. In addition, over 140 Boy Scouts and Scout Leaders participated in a special weekend CERT training program.
Our goal in 2007 is to continue to offer training for new volunteers while training and sustaining our existing volunteer base.
