Please allow me to invite you to a site designed by responders for responders... the crew that is doing it is CISM multilevel trained and are there for the guys after the bad calls. It helps the responders that do not yet have a team or would be worried that they asking for help would be seen as weakness. Please join and share it when you can. As a chaplain with over 25 years of service to fire departments I am excited with it's potential to provide support.
Visit Emergency and Disaster Responders
I am looking to make contact with fire department members all over the US with a view to planning assignments to photograph different departments. I would appreciate you giving consideration to having me come over during one of my trips to work with your fire department.
Best regards
