SUMMARY:In-Person - Volunteer Fire Service Culture: Essential Strategies for Success & Building a Healthy and High-Performing Fire Department

Based on the framework from the Psychologically Healthy Fire Departments initiative\, this course focuses on six key practices – member involvement\, health and safety\, member growth and development\, work-life-volunteer balance\, member recognition\, and effective communication – to facilitate member well-being and department functioning. \nInstructor: Dave Lewis
