The PFFPNC newsletter for October 12 – 16 is now posted and shines a spotlight on the importance of protecting those who dedicate their lives to protecting others. With mental health and wellness remaining a top priority, the IAFF is bringing its Peer Support Training to Carrboro, North Carolina, on December 1 and 2, offering firefighters and emergency personnel valuable tools to recognize warning signs, support struggling colleagues, and build stronger peer support networks within their departments. From navigating the emotional toll of emergency response to creating a culture where asking for help is a sign of strength, this training reinforces a powerful message: no firefighter should have to face life’s toughest challenges alone. Learn how you can take part in this important opportunity to strengthen the health, resilience, and brotherhood and sisterhood of North Carolina’s fire service.
