According to information from the nonprofit, it was created in 2017 after Hurricane Harvey to provide assistance for members and expanded to include financial assistance due to death, injury and other hardships. The nonprofit's website states it also serves to prioritize the behavioral health of all first responders in The Woodlands and throughout Montgomery County, led by the Woodlands Professional Firefighters Association.
"We must end the stigma associated with seeking help and battling with depression or other mental struggles in order to bring about change and one day end the needless deaths of our first responders to suicide," the website states.
