#15 PART 2 - Regional Disaster Services Director at The Salvation Army Patrick McGinn

Part 1 of this episode dove into Patrick’s background and expertise. In this episode, we talk about how he applies that expertise in his current role at The Salvation Army. We talk volunteering in a pandemic, provide those critical insights into working in austere conditions, mental health, and share stories.

Continuing our discussion, Patrick McGinn shares lessons learned from his time at The Salvation Army, talks about how and why people need to volunteer, even in a pandemic, and what his organization is doing to keep people safe. We also talked about how our host, John Scardena saved his life several years ago (but not really, it’s a hilarious story). We laugh a lot and talk Emergency and Disaster Services. Join in the conversation on this week’s episode.
