Paramedics from Superior Ambulance Service delivered a first-hand account of their occupations as emergency responders to Boys & Girls Clubs of Porter County-South Haven Kidstop members participating in “Mitch’s Kids” Career Day. Paramedics Robert and America Devine demonstrated equipment they use on a daily basis, answered questions about their jobs and career path and gave the members a tour of their ambulance.
“Mitch’s Kids” is a joint partnership between the Governor’s Office, the Indiana Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives, and the Indiana Alliance of Boys & Girls Clubs that provides tutoring and career exploration and educational services to eligible children after school. All members are eligible to participate in a career exploration component to help understand the skills and commitment to education required to achieve successful careers.
