On Tuesday, February 28 at 8 p.m. Eastern, FEMA will host a webinar for potential applicants to the Youth Preparedness Council.
Webinar Save-the-Date
FEMA seeks to recruit young leaders with a passion for preparedness to join the
Youth Preparedness Council (YPC). The YPC offers opportunity for teens to share their ideas and feedback with FEMA, grow their leadership skills, and work with like-minded peers to help strengthen preparedness and resilience
across the country. Members will also participate in a summit in Washington, D.C. with FEMA leaders and other professionals to network and learn more about the field of emergency management.
During the webinar on February 28, participants will learn more about the YPC application process and hear from three current YPC members about their experiences on the council. The webinar
will also provide an opportunity for participants to ask any questions they may have.
