This week, Cal OES welcomes you to learn more about Summer Wright with the Recovery Directorate, specializing in Individual Assistance. The work she does helps individuals, households, businesses, and agricultural communities recover after an emergency or disaster. Since 2017, Summer has coordinated over 40 different community-driven recovery centers, known formally as Local Assistance Centers.

“I really got into this line of work because of the humbling and fulfilling experience that Individual Assistance offers directly to survivors that have been impacted by a multitude of disasters that happen,” Wright said.

Prior to Cal OES Summer worked as a Prevention Coordinator at the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence and received her Bachelor of Science in Family and Consumer Science and Human Services at Sacramento State University.
