The Rising Warrior Podcast: Episode 6 - Bryan Weeks
Today we are talking with Bryan Weeks. Bryan has been a FireFighter for the past 23 years. He is currently the Assistant Fire Chief of training at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, a Peer Support coordinator, and is co-chair for the United States Air Forces Fire & Emergency Services mental health. Today we talked with him about what Peer Support is and how it goes about helping FireFighters.
For those unaware of what Peer Support is, Peer Support is the process by which a trained member of the fire service provides confidential support to another member who is experiencing personal, emotional or work-related problems while acting as a bridge to outside professional services. We get into what we see, what the Peer Support groups are doing well, and how we think they can be changed to better help the FireFighters. If you are a FireFighter and are interested in starting a Peer Support group in your department, please reach out to Bryan or us at The Rising Warrior. If you found any of this episode entertaining, interesting or valuable please share so that this information can get into the hands of those who need it. Thanks for listening and enjoy the show.
