Hello All,
I wanted to provide the following information to you regarding a community event on March 6th, 2019. As many of you know, in the past year there has been a couple ‘walkaways’ from the Ferris school, therefore, moving forward the Ferris school is implementing a Community Alert system to alert neighbors if another walkaway were to happen. If a walkaway occurs from one of the cottages the alert will go out as a walk away low level risk. The second type of alert is an escapee from the secured facility indicating as a high level risk. The alert will be a siren and a phone call if the resident completes a community notification sign-up.
Residents will have the have the opportunity to complete a community notification sign-up form, which I have attached in this email, and hear the updated information form the staff of Department of Children, Youth and their Families.
Rep. Mitchell is asking that you please share this information with your communities/residents and encourage them to attend the event and/or fill out the attached document and mail it into the appropriate address (location on the bottom half of the sign up sheet). The event information is below:
