Why make the switch to an EV?
Other than the fact that electric vehicles are fun to drive, here are other reasons to make your next car electric: typically, EVs cost less to power than gas cars, the maintenance costs are lower, and there is a federal tax credit for certain vehicles and chargers, making the total cost of ownership of many models favorable to gas engine cars. Fossil fuel-driven cars and trucks account for more than 50% of greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing CO2 pollution will secure a safer, cleaner planet for ourselves and for our children. In Virginia, electric vehicles using the grid create less than half the CO2 pollution of gas-powered cars. As electricity generation migrates to non-carbon energy sources, the EV’s indirect CO2 emissions will decrease significantly, eventually getting to carbon-free.

The Active Bystander Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) Certification course, also known as Active Bystander, is the premier training program to prepare civilians for how to respond during an intentional violent event and to address life-threatening emergencies.
Similar to FEMA’s personal preparedness course, “You are the Help Until Help Arrives,” this dynamic and hands-on class will cover basic strategies and skills to recognize violent activities, respond safely, provide immediate rescue and initiate stabilizing medical care to the injured, and effectively report to 911. The skills students learn are transferable to countless situations involving traumatic injury, including car accidents, household injuries or an active shooter.
Come and learn how to be an active bystander from our nationally recognized TECC experts and be prepared to save lives. Upon completion of this course, participants will receive a TECC Active Bystander certificate.
