First Responder Wife

I am wife to a Deputy Fire Chief (30+ years in first responder service) and married for 26 years. I have 2 children- Noah is a Sheriff's Deputy and Riley is going to college to become a Physician's Assistant. I have worked in education for 25 years as a teacher, assistant principal, principal and now supervisor. I grew up in a family of first responders - my father, grandfather and both brothers served as volunteer firefighters and one of my brothers is currently a Maryland State Fire Marshal. Smashing the stigma behind first responder mental health and well-being is a priority for me and my family.
