Like many of you, we have been monitoring the rapidly developing issues surrounding COVID-19. The Trust is committed to doing the best to help your department.
We are working to build flexibility into our programs to help you cope with this crisis. As you know, the Firefighter Heart and Fitness Grant funds that remain unused after three years are lost. For any department losing funds this year, we have postponed the expiration date of those funds to December 31 to allow additional time and flexibility to schedule heart screenings this year. If you are among one of the departments losing funds, a member of your staff will have received an email stating so.
As a reminder, Firefighter Heart and Fitness Grant funds can be used to provide reimbursement for CSU’s CORE program or a similar basic level of heart health testing. Full program details, including the online reimbursement applications, can be found on our website.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
