Episode Description:
In times of crisis, it is the first responders who show up to help those in need. They work non-stop to help the victims. They risk their lives for us each time they respond to an emergency situation. For this reason, we owe it to them to give back. But, giving back does not mean writing a $5 check or buying them a t-shirt. We can do much more than that.
Tune in as Jennifer sits with First Responders Resiliency Inc. Founder Sue Farren, Tidewell Foundation President Debbie Mason, and Dr. Adrienne Heinz break down the three R’s of helping our helpers. In this focus episode, you will hear why addressing this issue benefits the whole community, how more experienced folks can assist younger ones, and how to ignite the spirit of togetherness.
First responders continue to put their lives on the line day after day. Seeing them like this shows the depth of their humanness. But they also need help as much as we do, maybe even more than we do, and we have the privilege of contributing to whatever effort is being made for our first-responders who are suffering in the shadows.
