“I don’t honestly know how I would’ve gotten through the past few months without this program.” -Mabel Jesse, Daughter of a Fire Medic, FRCF Scholar, and Resiliency Program participant.

We are thrilled to share the positive impact that FRCF’s Junior First Responder camps have on the community. Our goal is to inspire the next generation of first responders while fostering healthy relationships between first responders and the communities they serve.
