Pardon the brazen shout out to my nineteen year-old son, Karson. Tomorrow he begins a ten month stint with Fema Corps. He will start in Sacramento, where he will go through ‘boot camp’. Once he completes his training he’ll start working somewhere in the western US.
Fema Corps is a Fema specific arm of the Americorps NCCC program. The FEMA Corps members focus on disaster preparedness, response, and recovery activities, providing support in areas ranging from working directly with disaster survivors to supporting disaster recovering centers to sharing valuable disaster preparedness and mitigation information with the public.
It should be quite an adventure for him; the start of making his own way in the world. Here’s a pic of him sitting on the bumper from 2011 (remember that time I ran out of gas . . .). Good Luck Karson!
