Call Now

If you or someone you know is in a crisis and needs immediate assistance please contact the resources here. People often don’t get the mental health services they need because they don’t know where to start. 

If you do not have a health professional who is able to assist you, use these resources to find help for yourself, your friends, your family, or your students.
In order to support our firefighter community, the Peer Support Team has curated lessons, articles, podcasts, and much more to guide you through behavioral health and wellness situations common for firefighters.
