I wish I had known about the CCC when I graduated from high school in 1980, rather than going into the Army. I didn’t discover it until 1985 — when I was unemployed, unhoused and desperate, I’m glad I did, they were a few of the best years of my life.

Another CCC to CalFire success story out to of

Growing up in Ventura County, Karli Sabater always had an interest in helping people. Before joining the Fire Center, she worked as an LVN, but the desire to do even more to help people kept calling. She found the CCC to be the perfect way to achieve her goal of working for CAL FIRE. “The CCC gave me the certifications I needed,” Karli said. “The CCC helped me get into shape and provided me with the knowledge needed.” Now, Karli is putting her knowledge to work as a Firefighter 1 with the CAL FIRE Santa Clara Unit. And she says if you’re interested in following her path to CAL FIRE, the CCC is the way to go.
