Obviously, if you're looking at it that there's only a few hundred people that are being affected by suicide, but these are first responders and they're dying more from suicide rather than in the line of duty.
Ever wondered about the mental toll on our first responders? In this episode of 'Mental Insights', Brendan Cutuli uncovers the alarming suicide rates among police officers and firefighters. Shockingly, only a tiny fraction of law enforcement agencies have suicide prevention programs in place. This lack of support is a stark contrast to the daily exposure these heroes face to trauma and life-threatening situations.
Brendan doesn't just highlight the problem; he dives into the importance of education, awareness, and community involvement in tackling this issue. By spreading knowledge and promoting mental health resources, we can help those who risk their lives for us every day. If you're curious about how we can make a difference for our first responders, this episode is a must-listen.
