ANTHEM, Ariz. — A firefighter nonprofit is embarking on a nationwide tour to educate first responders on the importance of behavioral health and suicide prevention.
The Firefighter Behavioral Health Alliance is launching a yearlong traveling workshop to promote behavioral health and suicide prevention awareness to first responders across the country.
FBHA’s workshop “Takin’ it to the Streets” will be available in 40 states spanning 1,600 miles during 2019. First responders will learn how to recognize behavioral health stress through role play and expert Q&A.
Pricing packages are available, as well as grants to provide the workshop for agencies and departments at no cost.
