 PILLAR I Project H.E.R.O (Help Educate, Reconstruct, Overcome) provides an environment that supports communication and education around the topic of trauma. Emergency Responders, veterans, and youth from underestimated communities with PTS, CPTS, and/or TBI, come together to share and process their trauma. Together, they develop and share coping skills, identify strengths, and examine how to channel those skills to promote healing. Fully aware of the strain between emergency responders and underestimated communities, it is our hope that by healing together, a bridge of mutual trust and respect can be built. This opens the door for a new generation to hear and answer the call to serve.

TOLEDO FIRE & RESCUE DEPARTMENT RECRUITING FOR DIVERSITY

The Charles Young Foundation would like to recognize the Recruiting for Diversity Program. As the brainchild of retired Firefighter Tony Hauge, Recruiting for Diversity focuses on building awareness—primarily in minority cultures—about the benefits of serving as a Firefighter and/or EMT with the distinguished Toledo Fire & Rescue Department (TFRD). Recruiting for Diversity believes diversity and equity amongst the ranks will better serve our community.  

Under the leadership of Tony Hauge, along with the help of Chief Brian Byrd and Battalion Chief Daniel Brown-Martinez, Recruiting for Diversity provides tutoring for the civil service exam, in addition to instruction and practice in interviewing via role-playing techniques. Recruiting for Diversity helps with preparation for background investigations and its volunteers help train possible recruits for the physical ability testing by building mock courses to practice on. Recruiting for Diversity is committed to finding the best candidates to fill the ranks of TFRD. 

As a result of the efforts and dedication of the Recruiting for Diversity Program, the first academy class of 2021 was the most diverse class in TRFD history. Please join us as we congratulate the Recruiting for Diversity Program for their commitment to community!
