The Emerging Leader Award was created to recognize individuals that have, in a relatively short amount of time, demonstrated leadership and exemplary volunteerism to FEMA.
The Emerging Leader Award is intended to be given to the most deserving candidate, and therefore, will not necessarily be presented every year. The award will only be given in years when there is a worthy recipient.
This award recognizes a professional working for a FEMA member company who:
Has a track record of active FEMA Committee volunteerism for a minimum of three years, but less than five years and the individual signals a desire to remain an active volunteer into the future as demonstrated by their participation in Committee events, engagement in Task Forces, etc.;
