AmeriCorps NCCC FEMA Corps Team Leader - Winter 2013

FEMA Corps, part of the AmeriCorps NCCC program, is a full-time, team-based residential program for people ages 18-24. Members are assigned to regional campuses, located in Perry Point, MD; Vinton, IA; Vicksburg, MS; Denver, CO; and Sacramento, CA. The mission of AmeriCorps NCCC is to strengthen communities and develop leaders through team-based national and community service. Like our traditional track, FEMA Corps requires an 11-month commitment of its Team Leaders, who lead teams of 8-12 corps members. Teams are assigned to disaster related service projects with FEMA throughout the region of their campus and can expect to complete between 4-6 projects during their term of service. FEMA Corps teams will be devoted solely to FEMA disaster response and recovery efforts. Structured like our traditional program, the FEMA Corps will provide support in areas ranging from working directly with disaster survivors to supporting disaster recovery centers to sharing valuable disaster response and mitigation information with the public. During their term of service, Team Leaders are expected to be the primary point of contact for the team as well as FEMA and NCCC program staff. Housing is provided by the NCCC and FEMA, either at the campus or at the project site.
