Our Purpose

To improve wellness and reduce the risk of mental health crisis for first responders and their family members in Bureau, Putnam, Marshall and LaSalle Counties and to provide services specific to job-related stressors experienced by workers in this field and their families. The Peer Support Network will allow first responders to contact someone for assistance, anonymously if they wish, at any time of the day or night. Trained peer supporters can aid their peers in a time of crisis, de-escalating the situation and connecting them with appropriate resources.

Trained Peer supporters from area police, fire, Ems and PSAP

Professional Counselors with a background in working with First Responders
