Retired Firefighters Wellness Network

Welcome to Our Site

​

This site is dedicated to the Retired Firefighters who have suffered in silence from Mental Health issues such as depression, sleep disorder, substance abuse and Post Traumatic Stress Injuries (PTSI) for far too long.

​

The Retired Firefighters Wellness Network is committed to supporting our retired brothers and sisters by providing opportunities to recapture the sense of fraternity that is the very foundation of our profession.

 

Our Peer Counselling and Mental Health Awareness Program is comprehensive and effective, and we are confident that we meet the challenge of the increasing rate of suicide among retired firefighters. We hope that you will consider joining us in achieving this important goal.
