First Responders, such as firefighters, police, and EMS, risk their lives to respond to our emergency situations. In doing so, First Responders may see untold tragedy, experience bodily harm, lose colleagues in the line of duty, and spend tremendous amounts of time away from their families. There is a dark truth that being a First Responder means you are more likely to face thoughts of suicide. We focus a lot on First Responders’ physical health. Not enough is being done to protect the MENTAL health of the brave men and women who show up when we need them most.
