Studies have shown that fire service members are at a higher risk for substance use than the general public. It is important to recognize the unique set of stressors, such as stressful calls and burnout, that face the fire service profession based on the work itself and the impact the job can have on fire service members and their families.

Here are some other resources on substance use that the Peer Support Team has found useful. (These are exterior resources and will open outside in a different window)
