Message from President O.G. Garrison

As the President of WV Chapter of the International Association of Arson Investigators, I would like to extend my thanks to all of the members of this great organization for your confidence and support.

The elected Board for this coming year has some of the finest individuals in their chosen fields and they show the highest degree of professionalism. I am extremely proud to serve with each member and I look forward to the challenges that we will meet and overcome in the months ahead.

The WVIAAI has always provided education and support to the public safety professionals as well as the private sector. In the upcoming months, the WV IAAI Board will strive to increase the level of education to not only our members, but to the industry as a whole.

The goal of the current WV IAAI Board is to educate our members in modern techniques used to identify arson and fraud and to support legal actions against such individuals. In order to achieve this monumental task we need involvement and active participation from all members.

Therefore, I am extending an invitation to all members to participate in our organization. In addition, I would like for each Board member to bring aboard new members into our organization.

This is your organization. We must all work together for the continued success of the WV IAAI Chapter and to pursue an active and progressive fight against arson and insurance fraud.

Once again, I would like to thank all of you for your support. I look forward to seeing every one in the upcoming months.
