We went from the effort to get these names put up on the wall to the effort to get assistance to these agents and professional support employees who have become sick.
When we think of the FBI, images of agents solving high-profile cases come to mind. But there's another side to this organization that often goes unnoticed—their commitment to supporting their own during tough times. In this heartfelt episode of 'Recovery Is Possible', host Michael Van Meter sits down with Tom O'Connor, the former president of the FBI Agents Association, to shed light on this lesser-known aspect of the FBI's mission.
Tom dives into the various ways the association steps up to help employees and their families, especially during tragic events. From charity work and fundraising efforts to mental health support and a college fund for the children of fallen agents, the FBI Agents Association plays a crucial role in providing a safety net for those who serve. Tom shares personal anecdotes and experiences that highlight the importance of taking care of the mental and physical well-being of FBI employees.
