First Responders Gathering

Gathering: First Responders

Our First Line peer gathering is for Law Enforcement, Fire & Rescue, EMS, Dispatchers, Corrections, and Federal Agents.

Our in-person gatherings are led by Pastor Andrew Columbia, who served as an NYC Police Officer, served as part of the Ground Zero Clergy Task Force during & after 9/11, now serves as the Lead Pastor of MCB Church in Carmel, and is a Chaplain with the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department & Kent Police Department in Carmel.

These gatherings are an open forum and offer an opportunity to listen, learn, and share what's on your mind.

  • WHO: Guardians only

  • WHEN: Monday, February 19 @ 7 - 8:30 pm ET

  • WHERE: Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, Carmel, NY


Gatherings

Our peer support Gatherings allow guardians to connect over shared experiences and similarities.

We encourage you to continue building your network of peer guardians & connections to your community. We also often share and discuss new & existing resources for mental health & wellness available.

  • Vet2Vet (for veterans and active duty military)

  • First Line (Law Enforcement, Fire, and EMS)

  • Women Guardians (for women across service branches)

  • Wellness Wednesdays (for all veterans & first responders)

Gatherings may be in-person or held virtually via Zoom.

Although we always love to see your face, feel free to keep your camera off & your microphone silent and tune in for a listen. You never know what you'll learn!
