VISION STATEMENT
It is the vision of the Weber County CERT Council, that all jurisdictions in the County have CERT programs and become active members of the Council. In this manner, the Council members can draw from each other's strengths to better prepare their own communities and support the program in a wholistic approach rather than splintered efforts. CERT Council members would be able to centralize and combine many individual efforts and thus enjoy greater benefits to the community through cooperation and collaboration
