EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Great progress has been made at SALF in the past quarter. SALF has expanded into
Florida, North Carolina and Pennsylvania, and pre-existing programs in Illinois and
Wisconsin have been expanded. SALF is working to create programs in Washington
D.C, Arizona and New York, just to name a few. We have met with the ML, NOAA,
Chicago Bar Association, National Citizens Corp, NASCAR, AHA and USCM. SALF
also met twice in person with CDC- meetings which took place in Chicago in July, and in
Atlanta in August. There will be many events in the coming year- kick-off events at
branches throughout the country, a presentation to the U.S. Conference of Mayor's in
January, and the annual Bridge the Gap Summit in March. In terms of training, we
currently have a total of 49 Instructors actively training, and to date SALF has trained
almost 4,000 students since school began in September. This means that SALF expects
to not only meet the agreed upon contractual number of 8,000 students to be trained, but
to far exceed it, possibly training over 30,000 school children this school year alone.
Additionally, the originally goal for number of Instructors was 45. By the end of the year
SALF expects to have nearly 100 Instructors throughout the country- more than double
the original goal.

A. Major Project Accomplishments/Barriers


• Mini-grants awarded to branches in FL, WI, PA and IL.
• Working on developing a program in Washington D.C. with Mayor Anthony
Williams.
• Awarded grantfromBlue Cross / Blue Shield Charities
• Awarded grantfromRonald McDonald House Charities
• Over 3,000 children trained in the Chicagoland area alone since school began in
September.
• Major barrier continues to be growth beyond current operating capability. More
attention must be given to thefinancialneeds of the organization in order to
match the level of interest and potential of SALF. Upgrades are needed in
technology in order to continue to expand. Additional staff is needed to assist in
daily operations at headquarters.
• Another barrier is the lack of available research on issues related to pre-EMS
services. This issue, however, is one that SALF hopes to address by
implementing its own research plan.

B. Personnel Changes (since June '04)


• Donna Achs, Director of Accounting, June '04
• Ryan Marks, Webmaster, August '04
• Josh Roberts, Public Affairs Manager, September '04
• Ciprina Spizzirri, Communications Director, October '04

Executive Summary

Within the month of September, the Save A Life Foundation Hanover Park Branch

developed strong leads within key school districts in their service area. District 46, one

of the largest school districts in Illinois, is very interested in incorporating SALF

programs into their programs within the next month. Also, District 20 also seems very

interested in incorporating the SALF programs into their health education period at the 61

grade level. The Dist. 20 administration desires that the SALF program primarily focus

on practical experience, as a result of basic first aid, Heimlich Maneuver and CPR being

taught in their current curriculum. Further meetings will be coordinated to discuss

options with the health teacher and the SALF Facilitator. In regards to corporate

sponsors, a grant has been mailed to the *5 f for review a donation of

SALF-MILWAUKEE

Major Project Accomplishments/Barriers

Conference with Division of Public Health in Appleton Wisconsin. The conference topic were:
Metropolitan Medical Response system/strategic national stock-pile activities, Cross border coordination,
science of anthrax, hospitals, surveillance and pandemic influenza, integrated communication, preparedness
volunteer projects,'protective equipment, roles for non-bioterrorism staff. My role at this conference was to
network and see if there ways to partner with the health department to be apart of the planning and training
for "preparedness training". It was a learning experience and one that I will be following up with. I have
again called Mayor Barrett and Sheriff David Clarke to reschedule an appointment to discuss the city
citizens corp. group. I also ask Mayor Bock to place a Mayor to Mayor call and see if he can influence the
Milwaukee mayor to see the importance of the SALF. 1 have identified two projects that I want to achieve
comingfromthis conference.
1) Persuade the city decision makers that SALF is an important element to assist them
in their endeavor of communicating to all citizens the preparedness trained.

2) Work with more corporation, village leaders, and school systems.

On October 16, and 23, 2004 Save A Life Foundation of Milwaukee will be working with the Marketing
department of St. Joseph Regional Medical Center. We will have a community day that will focus on
Emergency medicine and the different project of SALF. This will involve the neighborhood schools of
Sherman elementary, Washington High, Custer High, Milwaukee school of Language, Park Lawn YMCA,
Mary Ryan Boys and Girls and other community organizations. We will be collecting coats for the needy
and giving out information on the programs that are offered here at SJRMC. Perry Medic will be our
celebrity guess.
On October 18,2004 we will start training Sherman Elementary 3rd, and 5th graders in Save A Life for
Kids. The training will be for the school year.
On October 18, 2004 we will start to train students a Custer High School. We are still working out the
schedule.
I have a meeting scheduled at Milwaukee school of Language, French Immersion, Spanish Immersion and
Washington High School for October 7,2004.1 have worked this 3 of theses schools in the past so it will
be just to develop our action plan.
I have called Gwendolyn Moore who is running for congresswomen of Wisconsin to schedule a meeting. I
am just waiting for her office to return the call with a date. Ms. Moore was indorsed by the school board
and I would like to see if she could assist us in some of the funding. I would also like to see if you could
help us get in MPS front door.
Save A Life Foundation of Milwaukee working in conjunction with St. Joseph Regional Medical Center is
doing a group project for employees that will demonstrate the necessity of the following areas: This is an
important partnership for me and Save A Life because we have gained great respect through out the
community and this will be a great opportunity to help the hospital demonstrate how we have achieved this.
• Why focusing on excellence is so important
• How does percent excellent scores tie to customer loyalty
• Why do hospitals sometime struggle to achieve service excellence and why is it
difficult to implement

Progress Report and Request for Continuation Funding (PA04164)
From the SAVE A LIFE FOUNDATION, INC

A Program to Train and Educate Children and Adolescents in Basic Life Support

Save A Life Foundation's Mission

"Training and developing "Bystanders", especially children, as volunteers


equipped with Pre-EMS skills to aid the injured or ill in a time of an emergency to
reduce death and disabling injuries".

Section One - Milestone Status:

Terse Summary:

1. Collect and analyze data on the implementation of the SALF program

On going as each student is trained the test results are collected

2. Collect and analyze data on the efficiency of various skills and willingness of
the participant in using their new skills

On going as each student is trained the results are collected and analyzed

3. Explore the formation of SALF sites within health departments, hospital


emergency departments, fire and/or police departments to reach a larger
Illinois and Wisconsin statewide audience and expand into two additional
states.

Task was accomplished and participants awarded

4. Recruit emergency medical service providers as instructors

• Initial projection was accomplished and continues to grow to meet


demands.
5. Develop and strengthen partnerships to reach the appropriate audience
including and not limited to forming a strategic planning group made up of
representatives from federal agencies, national associations, i.e. U.S.
Conference of Mayors, U.S. Homeland Security and its partners, those within
emergency medical service, and other interested parties.

Accomplished targeted group and beyond

Section Two - Progress Report

A. Progress toward objectives


1. Collect and analyze data on the implementation of the SALF program

• With 26,290 trained students reporting -


i. 94% answering test questions correctly
ii. 85% answering an increased willingness to render aid after they
were trained.

2. Explore an individual with expertise in educational evaluation and research


and is familiar with EMS related training to conduct an IH literature search
of the efficiency of CPR and the Heimlich maneuver by September 1.
2004

• Effectiveness of CPR literature review completed (Attachment A).


Note: lack of interest by epidemiologists to pursue study. August 30.
2004
• HI research delay was due to lack of interest by numerous
epidemiologists to review subject matter

• Effectiveness of the Heimlich maneuver inconclusive due to:

o Individuals the Heimlich maneuver was performed on usual


survive and incident was not reported because the victim
continues on with daily activities.
3. Identify a group of experts in the field of emergency medicine, education,
municipal government, corporate, federal, state and local agencies to
identify states and/or communities especially those already served by
SALF, to target expansion locations and assist with the implementation by
September 15. 2004.

• As a result of SALF identifying four medical experts, two municipal


government, two federal agencies, one corporate and three local
agencies, the following SALF new sites were targeted August 30.
2004. Pennsylvania - American Trauma Society; Florida, Office of
Miami Mayor; Illinois, Alexian Bros' Medical Center, Hanover Park;
Anderson Hospital, Maryville, Illinois; Joliet Fire Department, Joliet,
Illinois

4. Identify potential master instructors from various EMS or healthcare


agencies for expansion process by August 30. 2004.

• Each new SALF site has identified, recruited, orientated and completed
police background checks on six new master instructors with
Emergency Medical Service credentials.

5. Re-develop SALF's web site and existing data collection system to monitor
the effectiveness of training by August 30. 2004.

• Database Completion delayed because of added programming to

allow other related data to be inputted and stored with class/score

data. This data was initially stored in separate data collection pools

necessitating manual entry and handling. Data now centralized

allowing future reports to reflect Class scores, teachers opinions, and

relative perceived effectiveness to be closely tied to Schools,

instructors, etc.
• Web Site Completion was delayed due to added programming to

include new features not previously available in Host providers Site

offerings. New Templates and client tracking features available from

Host Provider allow us to display information and track site data more

efficiently.

6. Expand and strengthen partnerships with groups, (i.e. Office of Homeland


Security- Citizen Corps - Medical Reserve Corps, U.S. Secretary of
Education, Office of the U.S. Surgeon General, U.S. Conference of
Mayors and municipal governments, corporations, and interested
agencies) by September 15. 2004.

• Accomplished. SALF partnership activities included:

Office of Homeland Security:

o U.S. Surgeon General directed all Medical Reserve Corps


volunteers to become SALF Instructors and help train local school
children and adults with SALF programs. He further included SALF
in his "Year of the Health Child" initiative.

Illinois Municipal League - assisted the development of two Illinois SALF


sites.

o Anderson Hospital, Maryville, Illinois - agreed number of children to


be trained 3.500 by May 31, 2005
o Alexian Bros' Medical Ctr, Hanover Park, Illinois - agreed number of
children to be trained 12.000 by August 30, 2005
o Joliet Fire Department, Joliet, Illinois - agreed number of children to
be trained 4.000 by July 30, 2005
American Trauma Society in Pennsylvania - helped the development of
one SALF site in Mechanicsburg, PA. In additional Pennsylvania
Department of EMS matched its SALF support - agreed number of
children to be trained 1.200 by August 20, 2005 (IS THAT CORRECT?)

U.S. Conference of Mayor's assisted

o SALF Miami Branch - agreed number to be trained 10.500


o SALF site Green Bay, Wisconsin (under development)
o SALF site Santa Barbara, CA (under development)
o SALF Site, Chicago, IL - within its existing Police and Fire Academy

Ongoing:

> SALF Site Schiller Park, Illinois continues to train Chicago Public
School children- agreed number of children to be trained 20.500
August 15,2005

> SALF Bond County, Illinois continues to train - agreed number of


children 500 by August 20,2005.

> SALF St. Joseph's Medical Center, Milwaukee, Wisconsin agreed

nationally. March 30. 2005
Total number of school students contracted to be trained bv SALF Branch
and/or Satellites = 65.600 exceeding original projections bv 13.3%

7. Identify potential national and local sponsoring organizations for the national
expansion program in the target states August 30.2004.

• Each SALF Branch and/or Satellite agrees to match funds to SALF mini
grant.
• Corporate America and private sponsorships occurred, including

o Global and Illinois Regional Ronald McDonald House Charities


o Chicago Board of Education
o Illinois/New Mexico/Texas Region Blue Cross Blue Shield
o Comcast Communications, all by JuJy_3CL2004.

B. Maior Findings:

Slower than expected interest in Pre-EMS by Corporate America

Contract approvals slower than expected

More interest in Pre-EMS among government entities than private citizens.

Hospital and/or legal councils caused extensive delayed in expansion.

C. Significance of those findings:

• Most funding opportunities focus on injury prevention, few on Pre-EMS

• Because of limited resources SALF had to be creative with site

start-up to accommodate financial needs by those requesting

program

• Local, state and federal representatives have demonstrated more

interest in SALF training because of our invitations to attend classes in


their district, we found that both media and the general public still

demonstrates a limited interest.

General observation:

Children (K-12) continue to welcome the instruction and enjoy the local

emergency medical professional, who often becomes a mentor. Their test

scores continue to demonstrate a stable level of retaining the skills and

increasing their interest in helping others in need.

• 26,290 trained students reporting - out of 39,310 out standing


i. 94% answered test questions correctly
ii. 85% demonstrate an increased willingness to render aid
after they were trained.

D. Proposed work

Funding is requested to sustain SALF's infrastructure, support existing SALF

sites, encourage each site to seek local sponsors to retain and expand their

school training independently, find avenues to promote Pre-EMS principles as an

accepted practice to increase public interest, to continually monitor the

effectiveness and saturation of SALF's training, and to maximize the limited

resources SALF receives to meet the growing demand of training our youth.

students, with 25 students per class, in a six-month period of operating existing
SALF and new sites. (All Instructors must have EMS credentials and obtain, at

kind serves to offset the actual setup and operating expenses. Additional
expensive ot & t per student will cover test and evaluation expenses.

The above costs are prorated for only a portion of the year with upfront cost
contributing to the greatest share. The actual start up cost would reflect a larger
number of children trained with a longer time frame and could exceec *? y
Once the initiate set-up cost is executed, a great share of funding will targeted to
the distribution of training. Various training and office supplies will be needed to
conduct the training system i.e. disposable lungs, cleaning agents, instructor
uniforms, paper, printer supplies. ($100,000)
Equipment $28.378

Note 12: PROfflBITTON ON USE OF CDC FUNDS FOR CERTAIN GUN


CONTROL ACTIVITIES: The Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and
Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, specifies that: "None of the funds made
available for injury prevention and control at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
may be used to advocate or promote gun control.

Anti-Lobbying Act requirements prohibit lobbying Congress with appropriated Federal


monies. Specifically, this Act prohibits the use of Federal funds for direct or indirect
communications intended or designed to influence a Member of Congress with regard to
specific Federal legislation. This prohibition includes the funding and assistance of public
grassroots campaigns intended or designed to influence Members of Congress with regard to
specific legislation or appropriation by Congress.

In addition to the restrictions in the Anti-Lobbying Act, CDC interprets the new language in
the CDC's Appropriations Act to mean that CDC's funds may not be spent on political action
or other activities designed to affect the passage of specific Federal, State, or local legislation '
intended to restrict or control the purchase or use of firearms.

Note 13: KEY PERSONNEL: In accordance with 45CFR 92.30 3(d)(3). Whenever there
is a significant change in the level of participation in the approved project by key personnel, as

Progress Report and Request for No Cost Extension (H28/CCH523764-02))
From the SAVE A LIFE FOUNDATION, INC

A Program to Train and Educate Children and Adolescents in Basic Life Support

Save A Life Foundation's Mission

Training and developing "Bystanders", especially children, as volunteers equipped with Pre-EMS
skills to aid in a time of an emergency to reduce death and disabling injuries".

Section One - Milestone Status:

Summary:

1. Collect and analyze data on the implementation of the SALF program.

On going, as each student is trained in life sustaining first aid skills

2. Collect and analyze data on the efficiency of various skills and willingness

of the participant in using their new skills.

On going as each student is trained the results are collected and analyzed

3. Explore the formation of SALF sites within health departments, hospital emergency departments, fire
and/or police departments to reach a larger Illinois, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania statewide audience
and expand into two additional states.

o Task was accomplished and participants awarded

4. Recruit emergency medical service providers as instructors

o Initial projection was accomplished and continues to grow to meet demands.

5. Develop and strengthen partnerships to reach the appropriate audience including and not limited to
forming a strategic planning group made up of representatives from federal agencies, national
associations, i.e. U.S. Conference of Mayors, U.S. Homeland Security and its partners, those
within emergency medical service, and other interested parties.

Accomplished targeted group and beyond

Section Two - Progress Report

A. Progress toward objectives


1. Collect and analyze data on the implementation of the SALF program

o With training goals of 77,550 students, 40,983 were trained reporting -


i. 94% answering test questions correctly
ii. 85% answering an increased willingness to render aid in an emergency

2. Establish relations with a medical institute familiar with the needs of EMS to conduct
research with SALF's LSFA data, to demonstrate the benefits of Life Sustaining First Aid
including CPR and the Heimlich maneuver. Auqust 30, 2005

• Note: lack of interest by epidemiologists to pursue the study and review subject matter
caused extensive delay. Not until January 15, 2006 when SALF secured interest by
the New York Medical College.
• Interest increased shortly after Louisiana's Katrina Disaster, including the "Illinois
Lincoln Challenge," U.S. Coast Guard Challenge Program. National Civil Air Patrol.
and Jr. ROTC, to conduct controlled research study.

3. Identify a group of experts in the field of emergency medicine, education, municipal


government, corporate, federal, state and local agencies to identify states and/or
communities especially those already served by SALF, to target expansion locations and
assist with the implementation by September 15, 2005

• SALF identified four medical experts, two municipalities, two federal agencies, one
corporate and three local agencies. The following SALF new sites were targeted by
December 30. 2005
Peoria Illinois Fire Department, Illinois
Illinois Lincoln Challenge, Rantoul Illinois
Chicago Fire Department 9-1-1 Center, Illinois
Bloomington Hospital, Bloomington, Illinois,
Rutland County Hospital, Vermont
New York Medical College, Valhalla, NY
Illinois Midway Civil Air Patrol, Chicago, IL
Kankakee Hospital, Illinois
U.S. Department of Defense
U.S. Homeland Security
VELCO (Vermont Electric Power Company, Inc.)
4. Identify potential master instructors from various EMS or healthcare agencies for expansion
process bv
August 30. 2005

• Five new SALF sites were identified, EMS recruited and oriented as SALF Instructors and
police background checks were secured on six new master instructors.
■ Note: Extensive delays occurred due to the Katrina disaster relief efforts by
many municipal emergency management units, causing Instructors to
postpone their training deadlines until November. 2007

5. Re-develop SALFs web site and existing data collection system to monitor the effectiveness of
trainin
9bv August 30. 2005

• Database Completion: In the past SALF maintained its data collection processing
through its National Headquarters in Schiller Park, Illinois. Both is mainframe servers and
web connect base were centralized within the National Headquarters. These reports
reflected class scores, teacher opinions, relative perceived course effectiveness, school
student and instructor. Due to SALF's statewide Illinois expansion, it was necessary to
establish a centralized processing center for Illinois data only in Springfield Illinois. The
purchase of additional data collection equipment, web connects and phone ware and
licenses was needed.

• This reconstruction was completed on time but due to recent interest by the NY Medical
College to use SALF's data in conducting surveys and research, it was necessary to
critique our original plan to fulfill the institute's requirements in obtaining data that still is
being considered by institute. This greatly jeopardized SALF another six months and
made it necessary to secure outside resources from the private sector.
• Web Site Completion was delayed due to added programming creating new features not
previously available by host providers. New templates and client tracking features are now
available from host provider allow us to display information and track site data more
efficiently. The death of SALF's Webmaster/MIS of ten years additionally delayed
progress, as SALF continues to search for his replacement.

6. Expand and strengthen partnerships with groups, (i.e. Office of Homeland Security - Citizen
Corps - Medical Reserve Corps, U.S. Secretary of Education,- Office of the U.S. Surgeon
General, U.S. Conference of Mayors; and municipal governments, corporations, and
interested agencies) by September 15. 2005

• Accomplished within timeline. SALF partnership activities included:

3
Office of Homeland Security:

o U.S. Surgeon General directed all Medical Reserve Corps volunteers to become
SALF Instructors and help train local school children and adults with SALF programs.
He further included SALF in his "Year of the Health Child" initiative.

Illinois Municipal League - assisted in the development of new SALF sites.

o Illinois Lincoln Challenge, Rantoul, Illinois


o Peoria Fire Department, Peoria, Illinois
o Marion Hospital, Illinois
o Kankakee Hospital, Illinois
o Bloomington Hospital, Illinois

VELCO - Vermont Electric Power Company, Inc. sponsored the creation of SALF site at
Rutland Medical Center, Vermont •

American Trauma Society in Pennsylvania - SALF site in Mechanicsburg, PA. In addition


Pennsylvania Department of EMS matched SALF's support - agreed number of children to be
trained 1.200 by Aoril 2007

U.S. Conference of Mayor's assisted:

o SALF site, Green Bay, Wisconsin


o SALF site, Santa Barbara, CA
o SALF site, Burnsville, MN

U.S. Citizen Corps

o SALF site, Phoenix, AZ

New Partners

U.S. Coast Guard's Challenge program December 2006

National Civil Air Patrol January 2006


Ongoing:

> SALF's new site at Illinois Midway Airport. SALF developed a relationship with the
National Civil Air Patrol to establish a SALF sites nationally at each of their 1,700 sites
and train 175,000 CAP cadets (14-19 years).
> SALF's new site at Rantoul, Illinois, (Lincoln's ChalleNge), developed a relationship to
include a SALF site at 33 ChalleNge sites nationally.

Number of students contracted to be trained by SALF sites = 77.550. exceeding original


projections by 23.3%

7. Identify potential and on going national and local sponsoring organizations for the national
expansion program in the targeted states. August 30.2005

• Each SALF Site agreed to match funds to SALF's mini grant with in-kind services.
• Corporate America and private sponsorships occurred include:

o Ronald McDonald House Global, Illinois Regional and Vermont Regional Charities
o Chicago Board of Education
o Illinois/New Mexico/Texas Region Blue Cross Blue Shield
o CCF Bank Illinois and Minnesota
o Comcast Communications May. 2007

Maior Findings:

• A slight increased interest in Pre-EMS training by corporate America after Louisiana


Hurricane Katrina's disaster but still very slow.
• More interest in Pre-EMS, among government entities, than by private citizens. Public still
assumes that it's the duty of public servants to be trained and perform and not theirs.
• Hospital or EMS site legal council caused extensive delayed in expanding due to liability
concerns.
• Recent discovery by corporate interest to support SALF because of its direct affiliations
with U.S. Homeland Security

Significance of those findings:

• Many funding opportunities still focus on injury prevention rather than on Pre-EMS issues

• Because of limited resources SALF had to be creative with site start-up to accommodate
financial needs by those requesting our program
• Local, state and federal political representatives demonstrate more interest in the need for

SALF training after witnessing classes in their district. Although there was a significant
~) -IS)

increase by the public and corporate America to support Pre-EMS after Louisiana's

Katrina Disaster it dropped sharply soon after media coverage stopped. The strongest

advocate still remains municipal leaders (mayors).

General program observation:

Children (K-12) continue to welcome SALF instruction and enjoy the local emergency medical
professional who often becomes their mentor. Their test scores continue to demonstrate a stable
level of skills retention and increased interest in helping others in need. Two reported lives were
by SALF trained students shortly after they received their training.

o 40,983 reported trained students - out of 77,550 of which 36,567 is still out standing
i. 94% answered test questions correctly
ii. 85% demonstrate an increased willingness to render aid after they were
trained.

Proposed work
Funding extension requested to sustain SALF's infrastructure, encourage each site to seek local

sponsors to retain and expand their school training independently, find avenues to promote Pre-EMS

principles as an accepted practice, increase public interest, monitor the effectiveness and saturation of

SALF's training, and to maximize the limited resources SALF receives to meet the growing demand of

training our youth.

a national disaster.

Objectives:

o Continue training at selected sites throughout the funding period


o Identify three additional program sponsors, bv February. 2007
o Use available data to evaluate program activities

2. Establish relations with a medical institute famDIar with the needs of EMS to conduct
research with SALPs LSFA data, to demonstrate the benefits of Life Sustaining First Aid
including CPR and the Helmllch maneuver. August 30.2005

• Note: lack of interest by epidemiologists to pursue the study and review subject matter
caused extensive delay. Not until January 15,2006 when SALF secured interest by
fha New York Medical College.
• Interest increased shortly after Louisiana's Katrine Disaster, including the "Illinois
Lincoln Challenge," U.S. Coast Guard Challenge Program. National Civil Air Patrol.
and Jr. ROTC, to conduct controlled research study.

3. Identify a group of experts In the field of emergency medicine, education, municipal


government, corporate, federal, state and local agencies to identify states and/or
communities especially those already served by SALF, to target expansion locations and
assist with the implementation by September 15.2005

• SALF identified four medical experts, two municipalities, two federal, agencies, one
corporate and three local agencies. The following SALF new sites were targeted by
December 30.200$

Ongoing:

> SALFs new site at Illinois Midway Airport SALF developed a relationship with the
National Civil Air Patrol to establish a SALF sites nationally at each of their 1,700 sites
and train 175,000 CAP cadets (14-19 years).
> SALFs new site at Rantoul, Illinois, (Lincoln's ChaileNge), developed arelationshipto
include a SALF site at 33 ChaileNge sttes nationally.

Number of students contracted to be trained by SALF sites * 77.550. exceeding original


projections bv23 3%

7. Identify potential and on going national and local sponsoring organizations for the national
expansion program in the targeted states. August 30. 2005

• Each SALF Site agreed to match funds to SALFs mini grant with in-kind services.
• Corporate America and private sponsorships occurred include:

o Ronald McDonald House Global, Illinois Regional and Vermont Regional Charities
a Chicago Board of Education
o Illinois/New MexJco/Taxaa Region Blue Cross Blue Shield
o CCF Bank Illinois and Minnesota
a Comcast Communications Mavr 2007

Major Findings:

• A slight increased interest In Pre-EMS training by corporate America after Louisiana


Hurricane Katrina's disaster but still vary slow.
• More interest In Pre-EMS, among government entities, than by private citizens. Public still
assumes that it's the duty of public servants to be trained and perform and not theirs.
• Hospital or EMS site legal council caused extensive delayed in expanding due to liability
concerns.
• Recent discovery by corporate interest to support SALF because of its direct affiliations
with U.S. Homeland Security

Significance of those findings:

• Many funding opportunities still focus on Injury prevention rather than on Pre-EMS issues

• Because of limited resources SALF had to be creative with site start-up to accommodate
financial needs by those requesting our program
• Local, state and federal political representatives demonstrate more interest in the need for

SALF training after witnessing classes In their district Although there was a significant
uu Ji"UO 13.J1 rg,

men
rease by the public and corporate America to support Pre-SWS after Louisiana's

Katrine Disaster It dropped sharply soon after media coverage stopped. The strongest

advocate still remains municipal leaders (mayors).

General program obserwaflqn; ..

Children (K-12) continue to welcome SALF Instruction and enjoy the local emergency medical
professional who often becomes theirmentor. Their test scores continue to demonstrate a stable
level of skins retention and increased Interest In helping others in need. Two reported lives were
by SALF trained students shortly after they received their training.

o 40,983 reported trained students- out cf77,SSd of which 36,567 is still out standing
i. 94%. answered test questions correcfr/
il S5% demonstrate an increased willingness to render aid afterthey were
trained.

Funding extensionrequestedto sustain SALFs infrastructure, encourage each site to seek local

.sponsors to retain and expend their school training independently, find avenues to promote Prelaws

principles as an accepted practice, increase public Interest, monitor the effectiveness and saturation of

SALFs training, and to maximize thettmltedresources SALF receives to meet the growing demand of

training our youth.-
