    There is now a single point of contact for first responder mental health resources in the State of Michigan!! Wayne State University is launching the Frontline strong together website and phone #. The website is fst5.org.
    You can go there and get peer support contacts from across the state for yourself or if you need a CISM/peer support team to come out after a traumatic run, get mental health professionals, contact info as well who work with first responders that can help you through a tough time.
    You also can either call +1 833-347-8766 or click on the link on the website and you will be connected 24/7 to a operator who is also a crisis counselor if you are in crisis or need help.
    These operators are not only for those in a crisis, they can connect you with peer support, cism/peer support, traumatic call out and mental health professionals. In addition, they have resources for financial help, child care, substance abuse, caretakers and much more. These resources are for the first responders and their families. Please go to the website and use these resources. Now every first responder in the state of Michigan can get help and resources 24/7!!!.
    Firefighters from the MPFFU helped to shape how this website and phone number worked and designed. If you use this and have any problems, contact info@fst5.org.

    Governor Whitmer Signs SB 249 Creating More Opportunities to Obtain Paramedic Training

    Thank you Senator Hertel, MPFFU President Matthew Sahr, MPFFU EMS Committee Chairman Monty Nye, and MPFFU Lobbyist

    Melissa McKinley for all of your hard work in getting this bill introduced and passed into law.

    Now our next challenge is HB 4688.  Staffing should be a mandatory subject of bargaining.


    I   

    With the help of Stadium Market, the Ann Arbor Firefighters Charities has obtained a barrel of Green River Bourbon that we are offering 750ml bottles for a donation of $75 to help our efforts in raising money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. 
     
    The Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) is the #1 voluntary health organization in the U.S. for people living with muscular dystrophy, ALS, and other related neuromuscular diseases. For over 70 years, MDA has led the way accelerating research, advancing care, and advocating for the support of families. 
     
    The barrel was taste tested and picked by members of Local 693. The Bourbon is cask strength at 123.5 proof. The bottle will have a custom label, similar to the picture. The bottle cannot be etched but will get that custom label. 
     
    Due to the yield of the barrel, quantities are limited and will go fast, so order early. The barrel will yield anywhere from 180-210 bottles. We are going to release 180 now and once we find out the actual amount, we will release the rest for donation. Possession of the barrel is scheduled for early/mid December. Just in time for Holiday Gifts! 
     
    Once we have the bottles and barrel in hand, your pick up location will contact you for further pick up info. 
     
    Local (Metro Detroit/Ann Arbor) Pick up ONLY
     
    CANNOT BE SHIPPED
