Arboriculture Training: Ohio DRC Officials Follow in Steps of Pennsylvania DOC
February 11, 2019 12:00 AM
Shea Zwerver, community engagement coordinator for the PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, shared with PA DOC staff recently that the arboriculture training program that began at SCI Rockview's Forestry Camp in 2017 is being replicated at Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections.
"This came to fruition when a manager in the tree care industry who works in Ohio read an article on our work and inquired, then I reached out to my counterpart in Ohio. Then months later, on February 6, I kicked off the first class," Zwerver said.
