FTT Programs

We proudly offer the following programs to serve our community.

Pesticide Outreach Program

We have created this site to help farmers, contractors and others in the agricultural community. In working with Utah's farmers and Farmworkers since 1992, we have found that there is a lot of confusion about the laws and regulations about Pesticides and Pesticide Safety Training. We found that there is a need for a place where our agriculture community can go to get their questions answered and to make sure they are protecting themselves, their workers and that they are in compliance with federal laws and EPA regulations. We hope that this will be a useful tool for you to find information on the laws & regulations, on health issues, emergency procedures and resources and an easy way to schedule a free training - the mandatory Pesticide Safety Training for all workers who come in contact with pesticides, or products with pesticide residues. We would like to thank the Utah Labor Commission's Workplace Safety Program for the grant funds that made this all possible.

H.E.A.T. Program

The purpose of the HEAT Program is to assist eligible households meet the rising costs of home energy. HEAT is not a welfare program. It is a federally funded Energy Assistance Program that is administered by the State of Utah through the Department of Community and Culture (DCC).

( Low Income Energy Assistance Programs) see website for more information. Weber, Davis and Morgan Counties in Utah will participate in a year-round demonstration HEAT Program. This is only a demonstration program, not a permanent program. This trial program is to determine its effectiveness. Persons living in these counties may apply for HEAT assistance one time during the period of: November 2, 2009 through September 30, 2010. HEAT benefits are a ONE-TIME payment only and will not cover your entire yearly energy costs. Therefore, it is important that each household do all they can to keep utility bills current.

IMPORTANT: It is not a requirement to be shut off or have a shut off notice to apply for benefits.
