Honoring Mental Health and Wellness in the FDNY Community

Friends of Firefighters invites you to celebrate 23 years of service and support for the FDNY community at our special anniversary event. This special evening will bring together firefighters, families, and supporters to reflect on our shared accomplishments and look ahead to the future of mental health and wellness for New York City’s Bravest.

We'll host a panel discussion featuring FDNY members, mental health professionals, and thought leaders. Together, we’ll explore the challenges of mental health in the fire service and the cultural barriers that often prevent firefighters and their families from seeking support.

Through this dialogue, we hope to spark new ideas, share successful strategies, and foster a deeper understanding of how we can break down these barriers and create a culture where seeking help is seen as a sign of strength, not weakness.

Whether you’re a long-time supporter or new to our community, this is your opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, celebrate the resilience of the FDNY, and learn about the impactful programs that are making a difference every day.

Your support helps us continue to serve those who serve us.

We look forward to celebrating with you and sharing our vision for a stronger, healthier FDNY community.
