Ending firefighter mental health stigma through the LA County Fire Peer Support Team with Jake Windell and Echo.

In this 51st episode of Therapy Dog Talk, I chat with Los Angeles County Firefighter Jake Windell and his 5-year old Yellow Labrador, Echo, about their amazing work together to break the mental health stigma for firefighters through the LA County Fire Peer Support Team.

In this episode, we discuss …

• Where Jake found his inspiration to bring a Therapy Dog onto the team.
• How other departments have been inspired to bring dogs on board for their firefighters.
• What Jake does to make sure both he and Echo have the support they need as well.
