"Remember, it’s OK to not be OK. We all want to go home at the end of a shift or call, and these trainings will help you and your fellow firefighters do that."
MnFIRE training instructor Andy Willenbring shares his experience delivering crucial education about cancer, cardiac, emotional wellness and more to fire departments across the state in our latest blog post.

It's National Volunteer Week, so let's recognize all of our incredible volunteer firefighters in Minnesota. Thank you for volunteering your time and talents, and for your dedicated service to your communities!
More than 96% of fire departments in Minnesota are volunteer or mostly volunteer-staffed – which is why we're proud to offer free Hometown Heroes Assistance Program benefits to both volunteer and career firefighters to support the health and wellness of everyone in the fire service.

It's been more than two years since the passage of the Hometown Heroes Assistance Program legislation, and since then thousands of firefighters and their families have been impacted by these free benefits, across every single county in Minnesota!
We're reminded daily of the increased health risks facing our fire service and the ongoing need for this program.
Through Hometown Heroes, all active Minnesota firefighters can access mental health resources and peer support, a critical illness insurance policy, and health and wellness training through MnFIRE at no cost to themselves or their departments. Learn more at: mnfireinitiative.com/hhap
