This class is open to everyone who has a heart to serve First Responders! You do NOT have to currently be a Peer Support/Chaplain to attend.
Learn how to effectively serve our Fire/EMS/Military/Police first responders. Peer Support, Chaplains, church leaders, non-profit volunteers, counselors, Hospice personnel, and anyone who has a heart for first responders can be used to serve these warriors. Chaplains provide a vital service to our heroes. Not only do they provide care, compassion and concern for first responders, but they also bring comfort to those who have been displaced by disaster or victimized by crime.
However, WHO TRAINS THE PEER SUPPORT/CHAPLAINS? Often well-intentioned people who want to serve as chaplains must learn through the school of hard knocks. The realities that are faced daily by police officers, firefighters, military personnel and paramedics differ significantly from the routines that many other people face. This Level 3 Training will equip each student with practical tips, tools, and techniques to provide care and support to first responders!
