Ambassadors

The ambassador program was created with the concept of allowing our membership better access to the Executive Board for questions or to bring issues to our attention. Since it's inception it has grown into a group of dedicated individuals who attend board meetings and weigh in on discussions. We have strived to have ambassadors located through out the state in a regional approach and while this is not always possible, the OVFA wants to encourage anyone willing to participate to apply. Being an ambassador can be a stepping-stone to becoming a Executive Board member by leaning what it takes to represent over 8,300 volunteer fire and EMS personnel through out our state. It also has special benefits associated with it. As an Ambassador, you are given clothing to identify your role, travel and lodging reimbursement as defined in the OVFA Policies and Procedures manual, and registration reduction and waivers to OVFA training and special events. We offer training and in-services on a as needed basis to educate you on presentation methods, how to address questions and to explain the mission of the OVFA. You are our ears out there to help us better "Represent Those Who Volunteer"
