David Edwards shares his journey from personal tragedy to leading mental health initiatives for first responders. We discuss the importance of resilience, peer support, and proactive mental health strategies to reduce suicide rates among first responders.

The Call For Backup Suicide Awareness and Prevention Campaign is built upon the principle that peers are best suited to help one another.  The stigma of seeking help for stress-related issues, and departments’ seeming lack of support, have caused many first responders to continue to suffer needlessly.
