Oakland County Veterans Resource Fair had assistance from Pioneering Technology Corp. via MI Prevention and their representative Stan Barnes were just one of the volunteers today who were onsite to serve over 430 Veterans and their families. Will Boake, Kevin Callahan, Reid Johnston and John Bergsma were there in spirit. The SmartBurner and Smart-Micro technology and information was a huge hit! CRR, Community Risk Reduction, is in full bloom. Not a single fire has started on a cooktop using SmartBurner’s technology. Cooking is the leading cause of all household fires, the leading cause of fire-related injury, and the second leading cause of fire-related death. SmartBurner helps save people and property by helping to prevent these fires from starting in the first place. SmartBurner is unlike other conventional fire prevention products in that it does not wait for a fire to start before taking action. Instead, SmartBurner prevents cooking fires from starting without the user even knowing they were at risk of a fire in the first place. Here are a few of the other resources that were present at the Veterans Resource Fair: *Oakland County Veterans’ Services—Providing information and claims assistance regarding Veteran benefits and giving away Meijer vouchers—to be eligible you must be a Veteran and Oakland County resident, and you must present a copy of your DD214 *Oakland County Michigan Works!—Providing Veterans and their families with career planning, training programs, job search resources and the opportunity to meet with an employment specialist *Oakland County Neighborhood & Housing Development—Helping residents with housing counseling *Oakland County Parks —Giving out free annual vehicle permits. Learn more here: tinyurl.com/p7awv8pk *Detroit VA Healthcare System—Offering registration help and exams for non enrolled Veterans *Oakland Community Health Network—Addressing any behavioral health issues and concerns, including behavioral health needs for children *VA Suicide Prevention—Providing free gun locks *Gary Burnstein Community Health Clinic—Scheduling free dental appointments *Michigan Veterans Affairs Agency—Printing DD214’s on site *Ride SMART—Providing information on their Veteran transportation program. MI Prevention is hoping to secure additional funding opportunities to offer SmartBurrner Technology and Resources to more of our Veterans, seniors and others who fit certain criteria.
