Experience Camp Courage
The First Responders Society is an incorporated non-profit company established by firefighter Andréa Speranza, in January 2006, for the purpose of introducing young women and gender-diverse youth aged 15- 18 to careers as first responders; primarily paramedics, police officers, and firefighters.
The ultimate goal is that the youth will leave with a sense of empowerment and the confidence to believe that they can achieve any goal, career or dream they desire.

Goals and Objectives
The primary purpose of the camp is to introduce youth to careers as first responders. The camp will aim to provide information, inspiration, education and opportunities to experience the physical demands, thereby allowing a more accurate perception of what it takes to act in these roles. The ultimate goal is that young women and gender-diverse youth will leave with a sense of empowerment and the confidence to believe that they can achieve any goal, career or dream they desire.
