Do you know a young person in grades 8 – 11 who wants to make a difference in their community?
Beginning January 7, 2025 through March 3, 2025, teens with a passion for preparedness can apply to join FEMA’s Youth Preparedness Council.
FEMA created the Youth Preparedness Council in 2012 to bring together youth leaders from across the country who are passionate about emergency preparedness and making a difference in their communities.
The YPC provides young people with an opportunity to learn about emergency management, develop professional skills, and share their perspectives with FEMA staff. The YPC is a concrete example of FEMA’s commitment to involving America’s youth in preparedness-related activities.
Save the dates! FEMA will host two webinars for potential applicants to learn more about the YPC and the opportunity to ask FEMA staff questions about the application process.
Potential applicants can learn more by attending one of these upcoming information sessions:
