Michelle Obama Instagram – We’re thinking of everyone impacted by the California fires, and are grateful for the firefighters, first responders, and community members who have been doing all they can to meet this moment.
One of those leaders is Royal Ramey, who participated in our @ObamaFoundation Leaders USA program, and is the co-founder and CEO of the Forestry and Fire Recruitment Program (FFRP). Royal and his team at @ffrp_ca have helped more than 300 formerly incarcerated individuals gain the training they need to become employed as firefighters. He says FFRP aims to help, “break cycles, create opportunities, and protect communities.”
Today many of these firefighters are helping take out the California fires, and we are thankful for their heroic work. | Posted on 22/Jan/2025 03:30:34
