Training Opportunity Date:
April 26, 2007
Training Opportunity:
Courage to Be Safe Training - A different type of courage is the subject of "The Courage to Stay Safe - So Everyone Goes Home™" program. This provocative and moving presentation is designed to change the culture of accepting the loss of our firefighters as a normal occurrence.
At the heart of "The Courage to Stay Safe" are the gripping, untold stories of LODD survivors, revealing how family members must live with the consequences of a firefighter death. The program graphically underscores the need for firefighters and officers to change fundamental attitudes and behaviors in order to prevent line of duty deaths, and promotes the courage to do the right thing so that "Everyone Goes Home™" at the end of the day.
