About FEMA:

At FEMA, we are a team of Federal leaders who support the people and communities of our Nation by providing experience, perspective, and resources in emergency management. For many of us, emergency management is a movement or a calling. We pursue this calling by helping people before, during, and after disasters. Disasters include all types of emergencies and hazards, and can come in all forms and magnitudes to include both natural and man-made incidents.

About FEMA Reservists: 

Reservists are on-call FEMA employees that travel and support survivors and first responders during disasters or emergencies.  Reservists are appointed for a two-year period and work on an intermittent basis, due to the irregular nature of disasters.

Before Disasters, we help people understand risks to life and property and motivate them to take action – individually and collectively – to reduce these risks, build capabilities, and prepare for disasters.

During Disasters, we message, mobilize, and coordinate to support state, local, tribal, and territorial response efforts to stabilize communities.

After Disasters, we help individuals and communities recover after a disaster and build back stronger.

We all play a critical role in building a prepared and resilient Nation, whether you are supporting human resources, information technology, policy and program work, deploying to a disaster, engaging directly with survivors, or performing any other function within our Agency.

Join our team and use your talent to support Americans in their times of greatest need. To learn more FEMA prior to our event, please review our Careers page here.

We look forward to seeing you!
