First responders hold a special status in our society. Society looks to first responders to protect our lives, provide for our safety and medical assistance. First responders are not always seen, but we expect them to be there to resolve any crisis. But what impact does this have on the mental health of first responders?

This course will look at the role of first responders and the potential mental health impacts of this job. How do first responders navigate these issues and what can we do to help?
