Being a firefighter, police officer, EMT, nurse, or military personnel is one of the noblest things a person can do. Over one million first responders put themselves on the line every day to protect their communities. But this honorable calling puts first responders at greater risk of trauma and stress that can lead to PTSD, depression, anxiety, and substance use. All the more reason for our First Responder Wellness Programs.
While your mission is to protect the people you serve, our mission at Design For Change is you.
We help all first responders through our First Responder Wellness Program:
When you come to Design For Change, you don’t just get a licensed and trained clinical staff with experience in addiction treatment. You get hands-on therapy with professionals who have worked with first responders and genuinely understand the challenges you’re going through.
Our first responder clinical staff provides various services, effective therapies, and specialized aftercare programs to help you work through addiction and live well again.
We know the lasting impact of the trauma faced on the job. That’s why our First Responder Wellness Program provides trauma and co-occurring informed care for our first responder heroes.
If you are experiencing any of these issues, we can help:
No two people are alike, which means there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach to treatment. When you come to Design For Change, we work with you to identify the best form of care for you, then develop a personalized treatment plan that will meet your needs. Some of our therapy models that are successful for first responders include:
No matter what substance you’re struggling with due to trauma, anxiety, or depression, our program at Design For Change can help you recover and get back to serving and protecting your community.
