As first responders, we are often called to people during their most challenging times. Many of the outcomes are positive, and many of our calls are "routine". However, we also face negative outcomes despite our best efforts.
To ensure we are ready to handle the next call, we must first take care of ourselves. This page is dedicated to ensuring resources are readily available for our Tri-Community members and ANY first responder that choose to reference our page.
Reaching out for help is NOT a sign of weakness, it is a sign of strength.
