Peer Team Training Program April 14-15 | SC Fire Academy

 “Reaching Out”, Helping our Own, is a program presented by our South Carolina State Firefighters’ Association, in cooperation with the South Carolina Fire Academy, the National Fallen Firefighters’ Foundation and the South Carolina Department of Mental Health, to address the behavioral health needs of our state’s first responders. Members of our Association’s Firefighter Assistance and Support Team (F.A.S.T.), consisting of first responders from around the State, will deliver this initial Behavioral Health Awareness Training. This class will give a basic awareness of stressors in the lives of first responders on and off duty. We will discuss the importance of recognizing that stress in ourselves and in our fellow first responders, Firefighter Life Safety Initiative 13 and communication. Prerequisites include:
