Grantor: IL Emergency Management Agency Grantee: City of Elgin By: By: William C. Burke, Director Ed Sc ock, Mayor DATE: DATE: 9 oZ 0(2 V 2004 Citizen Corps Grant Page 7 of 7 City of Elgin Illinois 2004 Citizen Corps Program Grant Request Narrative "To capture the spirit of service that has emerged throughout our communities, we launched the USA Freedom Corps initiative earlier this year. As pad of that initiative, we created Citizen Corps to help coordinate volunteer activities that will make our communities safer, stronger and better prepared to respond to any emergency situation." President George W. Bush April 4, 2002 The Elgin Citizen Corps Council The Elgin Citizens Corps Council (ECCC) is being developed to harness the power of the citizens of Elgin, Illinois through education, training and volunteer service to make our community safer, stronger, and better prepared to respond to the threats of terrorism, crime, public health issues, and disasters, man-made or natural, of any kind. The ECCC will be organized through a core of community based programs already in place and providing community services to the emergency first responder organizations. The parent organizations, of these groups, serve as the national chartered members of the Citizens Corps, they are: Neighborhood Watch (Rope, Nope, ECN), VIPS (Citizens Police Academy Alumni association and Law Enforcement Explorer Post 1445, Medical Reserve Corps (Sherman Hospital, St. Joseph Hospital, Kane County Public Health) and our newest member, CERT (Community Emergency Response Teams). These four community groups will continue to develop, build and promote community-based programs that build on our strengths and implement plans for our citizens to participate through: Personal Responsibility: Developing household preparedness plans and disaster supply kits, observing home health and safety practices, implementing disaster mitigation measures, and participating in crime prevention and reporting. Training: Taking classes in emergency preparedness, response capabilities, first aid, CPR/AED, fire suppression, and search and rescue procedures. Volunteer Services: Engaging in volunteer activities that support our first responders, disaster relief groups, and community safety organizations. Together they will form the Elgin Citizen Corps Council to support Elgin's law enforcement,fire, emergency medical services, community public health efforts, and the four stages of emergency management: prevention, mitigation, response, and recovery Program and Financial Need The City of Elgin is the largest of the Northwest suburbs of Chicago. The City is in the midst of a great transition, perhaps the greatest in its modem history. After many decades of modest change, Elgin's growth is beginning to accelerate sharply. Elgin's population forecasts for the next ten years suggest a projected population of more than 145,000. This will be an increase of more than 50% from the current population of 95,000. This growth is welcomed by some as an opportunity for progress, and yet it is also feared by others as a major change. Concerns over taxes and financial stability accompany this change. Due to the worst economic times in the last two decades the residents and city government have been forced to adopt a "do more with less" environment in regards to budgets, expenditures and city services. The need for community involvement has never been in higher demand. Following the events of 9/11, Elgin has been even more committed to using its citizen resources to interface with the City's emergency first responders. Community programs involving Citizen Corp national partners such as Neighborhood Watch, Volunteers in Policing Services(VIPS) with the Citizens Police Academy and the Law Enforcement Explorer Post#1445, Medical Reserve Corp, and Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT) have volunteered thousands of community service hours annually to support Elgin's emergency first responder programs. It is fully recognized that, despite the City's high level of professional emergency services and preparedness training, it is realized that the first responding emergency personnel could quickly become inundated in the event of a major disaster, even with its extensive mutual aid program in place. The concept of"Neighbors Helping Neighbors: become most important during these times. Having disaster trained and certified citizens to help each other stabilize their neighborhoods will allow the emergency first responders to focus on the most critical of situations facing the City following a disaster of any type. Until the availability of financial assistance from the Illinois Terrorism Task Force and the Illinois Emergency Management Agency no funds were available for this endeavor. Elgin is proud to have been recently recognized as one of seven Illinois communities to receive a 2003 grant for developing,training, and equipping a Community Emergency Response Team. Funding received from the Citizen Corp Council grant will provide the additional funds required to complete the CERT training and equipment program as well as provide for establishing community outreach and public education programs in conjunction with the core partners of Citizen Corps. Elgin Citizen Corps Manaqement One of the first organizational steps of the ECCC will be to determine a mission statement for the group and hold a strategic goals and planning workshop for it's members. Through these efforts the ECCC will develop it's short and long-range planning efforts in the areas of Management. Community Outreach, Funding and Programs. Expectations for these areas include: Management: The affairs of the ECCC will be vested in its Board of Directors who are non- compensated volunteers dedicated to promoting the mission and goals of the ECCC. The Board will be comprised of eleven voting members who collectively represent the ECCC programs (NW, CERT, MRC, and VIPS), the City of Elgin, and community, business, and volunteer leaders from the Elgin area. Ex-officio members of the Board will complete the overall vision of a collaborative body of experience and leadership of like-minded leaders of Elgin. Community Outreach: The outreach committee of the ECCC will be charged with raising the public awareness of ECCC by distributing informational and educational materials, attending community events, and speaking at key opportunities to promote the ECCC mission and fundraising efforts to Elgin's residents. The outreach Committee will also work to collaborate the efforts of the ECCC with partners and representatives from various city departments, allied public, private, and volunteer agencies including the American Red Cross, United Way, Salvation Army, Senior Triad, Boy Scouts of America, businesses, faith-based groups and residents to develop a community wide plan for educating all residents of Elgin in a "Neighbors Helping Neighbors" program to ask, "ARE YOU 2 READY ELGIN?". The primary goal of which will be to have all of our residents- "Make a Kit", "Make A Plan", and "Be Informed". Funding: The Budget and Finance Committee will be responsible for annual budget preparation and expenditure review, financial accounting and auditing, fundraising initiatives and fiscal policy implementation for the ECCC and its programs. The Budget and Finance committee will provide oversight for the distribution of$20,000 in funds from the 2003 Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) grant that was recently awarded to the City of Elgin from the Illinois Emergency Management Agency. In addition outside funding will be sought to fund initiatives through solicitations for local private donations, and corporate community partnerships with Home Depot (Home Depot foundation) and McDonalds (McReady for Disaster Program). Programs: The Programs Committee will affirm the training efforts for the CERT program now funded and beginning instructor(Train-the-Trainer) education.
