One of the first activities that Brunette will be working on is CRR Week (www.crrweek.org). CRR Week started in 2019 as an ad-hoc, informal program, to raise the awareness about CRR among the members of the fire service. However, it has grown tremendously since its humble beginnings and, to help it grow and be sustainable, it has moved under the Vision 20/20 umbrella.
