As we both know mental health is a serious issue in the 911 field, and our members don’t always want to call a work related help line.
Boots on the Ground is a peer support network for first responders that is entirely staffed by volunteers who were or are currently first responders.
When we created 100 Firehall Workouts, we wanted to help our members become more fit, but we also recognized that physical wellness and emotional wellness are not entirely unrelated.
We have all lost friends to mental illnesses that was work related, but maybe if there was some more awareness and an early intervention piece, that this could help save our peers and help them live a better life.
With the purchase of every book, 100 Firehall Workouts is donating proceeds to support Boots on the Ground.
If you are in need of support, call Boots on the Ground. They are an anonymous First Responder-staffed helpline 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
1-833-677-2668
