TUCSON, Ariz. — According to recent data from the FBI and FEMA, women currently comprise just 12 percent of police officers and nine percent of firefighters.
The goal of the camp is to empower young women to pursue careers in law enforcement and firefighting. It also seeks to diversify the public safety workforce. They practiced rappelling down structures, simulated responding to a brush fire, and managed a chemical spill scenario. These activities are not just about physical training but also about instilling courage, confidence, and character in each participant.
