Summer 2016 Series: Why You Should Support the #21CSC

Every Wednesday between June 15th and August 31st, we’ll release a new shareable image depicting a reason why it’s important to support the 21CSC initiative. Post these images on your social channels to let people know why the 21CSC is a good idea.   

June 22nd – REASON #2 to Support the 21CSC: Corps leverage the experience of our veterans and help them transition back into civilian life through continued service.

Some 21CSC programs operate crews specifically for recent veterans. By joining a Corps, veterans can train for a new career and transition back into civilian life while continuing to serve alongside men and women who share their experiences and values. Corps help our veterans translate their technical skills and passion for service into careers in public lands management.

Watch this video to see a 21CSC Veterans Fire Corps crew in action. Hear from recent veterans why their Corps experience is important to them.
