iewers will learn the importance of proactive mental health as a means to combat the many mental health disorders that are common among first responders, including depression, addiction, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress symptoms. Tragically, when not addressed, the end result of each of these can be suicide. You will learn methods to prevent suicide by learning its traceable causes. Rather than focusing on individual risk factors, this webcast will explain how creating an environment to encourage help-seeking behavior can alter an individual's trajectory from reaching suicide.

This webcast will cover a variety of topics all geared to the health and safety of first responders. We will begin with a focus on the importance of maintaining a clean cab environment with a focus on air purification and seat material selection, both of which can help keep first responders safe from pathogens and carcinogens that can pose a serious health risk. We will then shift to other life and property saving technologies and conclude with time for questions.
