Hello Neighbors

We are looking for stakeholders to become C.E.R.T. qualified. You need to complete the Los Angeles Fire Departments Community Emergency Response Team (CERT), Level 1 CERT . This training is a real eye opener and I hope other neighbors will take this class if for nothing more than being prepared to help themselves and there loved ones in times of disaster. Do you think you could use a fire extingusher and put out a fire?? After this class you will have the answer on not only how to do it but you will actually put out a real fire with a buddy under supervised conditions.

We have other neighbors in the NHWNC area that have completed or are near completion of there Level 1 CERT Training.

• If you are interested in getting trained: If we can get 25 people to volunteer there time to attend a Level 1 CERT Class for 7 weeks the LA Fire Dept will provide the class for FREE.

You can find more information about the class at: http://www.cert-la.com

• If you have been trained or need training: please send us an email at cert@nhwnc.org with your information so that we can keep track of each other.
