Police and firefighters in Huntington will no longer have their mental health neglected thanks to a program that seeks to improve self-care, training and other resources.
In October, Huntington was named a winner of the 2018 U.S. Mayor’s Challenge, receiving $1 million to provide in-house mental health services to first responders on the front lines of the opioid epidemic.
The goal is to combat compassion fatigue, which are feelings of depleted empathy in the face of overwhelming overdose calls.
