First Responders have a front row seat to some of life’s most horrific events, with minimal recovery time and the guarantee that future exposure awaits. This can result in a dysregulated nervous system flooded with incoming information that shapes the way the first responder views him/herself, others, and this world. A Peer Support Program is a critical component for every department to promote overall wellness for first responders and other department personnel while mitigating occupational and personal stressors.  Register to learn how to develop a Peer Support Program at your Department.
