In the Spotlight: Joyce Hollingsworth

Joyce Hollingsworth has been ensuring travel vouchers for individuals attending training at FEMA’s Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP) are certified and paid since 2001.

Her experience as a voucher examiner, however, goes back to 1986, when the facility now known as the CDP was part of Fort McClellan and she worked as a contract employee, supervising the travel voucher process for soldiers attending training there.

When she became part of the CDP family, she started as a contract employee before accepting a federal position in 2011.

Hollingsworth not only ensures every individual attending training has the appropriate travel documentation, but also manages travel vouchers for federal employees at the CDP who deploy in response to federal disasters.

“I enjoy being part of the mission of the CDP – making sure responders receive the training they need,” she said.
