Summary

Selena told the Portola Valley Emergency Preparedness Committee that WPV Ready has reached 59 trained "ready communicators," posted two training videos on its YouTube channel and is scheduling a backup-power workshop for late-month evening sessions.

Selena, who leads WPV Ready communications, told the Portola Valley Emergency Preparedness Committee that the group has trained 59 "ready communicators" and posted two training videos — "Wildfire Resilience in Action" and "Ready and Able" — on the WPV-ready YouTube channel.

"We did have a ready communicator training on the 25th. So now we are up to 59 total ready communicators," Selena said, and she praised Mark Dolan for running the sessions. She said the "Ready and Able" session was tailored for older adults and focused on staying safe, assessing situations and calling 911 rather than performing physically demanding tasks.

Selena also outlined a planned backup-power workshop aimed at a range of skill levels and tentatively scheduled for a Friday evening this month. She asked committee members to help publicize the training once the date is confirmed.
