Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder impacts First Responders, as well as people of any age, background, & life experience. Treatment helps. Knowing the signs & where to turn for help is essential.

The fire service sees its share of trauma from PTSD and cumulative stress from a difficult job that is rewarding, yet taxing. Approximately 1 in 5 fire service members will develop PTSD during their career. Many more will experience post-traumatic stress.

Please join us in learning to recognize the signs and symptoms of PTSD, learn about available support options, explore post-traumatic growth, and discover how to be a resource for others.
