From the NJTI Newsletter: Colorado Is Active!

Colorado began working on becoming active approximately seven years ago. Dianne Russell and Joe Ribiero were the state coordinators at that time.
"They worked very hard in creating a mutual aid agreement between Colorado TERT and the state; we were just never able to get to those final stages. I took over as state coordinator in 2013 and have been working with and tirelessly harassing the State Resource Ordering manager Bill Miederhoff. With his help and support, we were able to create an agreement with the state that qualified us to be TERT active.
This has been a huge accomplishment for our state and absolutely would not be possible without all of the help from our 11 Regional Coordinators and all of our TERT members who have continued to work toward this goal. We all are passionate about TERT and firmly believe in dispatchers helping dispatchers. Natalie Duran's continued support for our state and our members has been immeasurable. On behalf of Colorado TERT, we thank you.
Colorado Regional Coordinators are now working on contacting every Comm Center in our state, sending them a TERT survey and agreement to sign as well as update our data base of TERT members. This is proving to be very time consuming as well, but as proven, we are very patient...and persistent!"
