When Will You Be Home? by Jason M. Hepner is a raw, honest memoir of service, sacrifice, and the emotional toll of answering the call during America's darkest moments.

Fueled by frustration with one-sided portrayals of FEMA in the media, Hepner decided to set the record straight. What followed was a deeply personal account of what it truly means to serve and what it costs to keep showing up for everyone else.

Torn between duty and family but driven by a need to help others, Jason takes readers inside the reality of disaster deployments. From volcanic eruptions in Hawaii to deadly tornadoes in Alabama. These aren't just stories about destruction - they're about the families left behind, the leadership that failed to understand, and the increasing torment that followed each deployment.

More than a memoir, this is a mission. Jason gives voice to thousands of federal disaster workers whose stories were never told, and whose sacrifices were quietly buried behind headlines.

If you've ever wondered what it's really like behind the curtain of disaster response, When Will You Be Home? will leave you breathless, angry, and inspired - all at once.
