Peer Support
As First Responders, we see horrors few can imagine. While the call may end, the effects often linger. If we are not careful, sometimes they can push us over the edge. Peer support is the strongest weapon we have in the fight against post-traumatic stress injuries. It is critical that we break the stigma associated with post-traumatic stress injuries and encourage those who need it to seek help. The Peer Support program is designed to make peer support and professional mental health resources easily accessible for all members and their families.
Not all mental health professionals are the same. We have gathered recommendations from the Trust to develop a network of recommended counselors and support. Please confirm with provider before meeting if they are in-network.
