DISASTER RESPONSE- FEMA CORPS- Ages 17 to 24 Every year, disasters put millions of Americans in danger and costs billions of dollars in property damage. But every year, all year, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is on the job —as part of a team helping communities reduce risk, helping emergency officials prepare for all hazards, and helping people get back on their feet after their lives are disrupted by a disaster. FEMA is the federal coordinator for the operational and logistical disaster response needed to save and sustain lives, minimize suffering, and protect property in a timely and effective manner in communities that become overwhelmed by disasters. FEMA assists in community recovery through a number of channels, including obligating monetary aid for both individual assistance and public assistance. FEMA Corps is a unique, team-based service program that gives participants the opportunity to serve communities impacted by disaster while gaining professional development experience. If you share this interest in supporting American communities devastated by natural disasters such as hurricane, tornado, flooding, blizzard, fires and other events, apply for this program. This federal training & service learning program requires no degree or experience. If you are over the age of 24, please visit usajobs dot gov and search under FEMA for employment opportunities.   START YOUR APPLICATION OR REQUEST ADDITIONAL PROGRAM INFORMATION https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/VIP_NCCC             This process notifies the authorized representative of the government assigned to your state who will contact you via email with additional information and application assistance.   PROGRAM BENEFITS • Completed degree not required • Gain experience while exploring career options • Gain a competitive edge over other job applicants in private or government sectors • Gain leadership and management experience • Gain college credits for continuing education (earn 6-9 credit hours) • Gain new contacts by networking with government and community agency directors • Gain new skills in your career field and expand your capabilities • Gain advantages for college, trade school or apprenticeships • Team Leader option for those with advanced skills and education (11 months) • Minimum of 10 month commitment- can be repeated • Travel, lodging, healthcare provided plus childcare allowance if applicable • Earn bi-weekly pay plus $6,095 to pay off educational debt or pay for future educational and job training expenses   PROJECT EXAMPLES Natural Disasters- manage volunteers; managing distribution centers and shelters; preparing and distributing meals; clearing debris; enrolling victims into emergency-assistance databases; mucking and gutting; surveying community assets; distributing educational materials and preparedness kits; implementing disaster-preparedness curricula; GIS mapping for improvements to community emergency response systems Disaster Survivor Assistance- Work directly with Americans affected by disaster, manage documents, conduct surveys, or work at a recovery center.
