In March of 2022, Heartland Education, Inc., formed the first of its kind, multi-agency multi-discipline, peer support team. The peer support team was trained to offer Oklahoma First Responders the mental health help that they need and deserve. The team activated and deploys whenever a first responder, whether that may be dispatch, law enforcement, fire or EMS professionals needs support after a traumatic event. The Peer Support team is strictly funded from donations and grants, which are used to train and equip the team, as well as provide funding to first responders who may be financially restricted from accessing professional mental health help. The demand for mental health assistance is not decreasing and at this time our team has a specific need for more members whom will require in-depth initial training.
