Max
Living to the Max!
A suicide awareness and prevention initiative supported by a family endowment to remember their son and grandson, Max.
Max was a young vibrant Paramedic that gave to his friends and patients freely, all while coping through personal struggles. Max sought out counseling services, but instead took his life the morning prior to his first appointment. Max’s family and friends want other providers to know that help is available, that you are strong enough and that you do matter!
In 2025 we hope to finalize and host our first post trauma retreat to focus in on our First responders that need something more. We have been working through the logistics and curriculum for this unique retreat that will be small group, therapist and trained peer supported.
If you know a First Responder that could benefit from a retreat of this nature, or you are a therapist that would like to come support the care for these amazing people, please use the contact page and drop us a line.
A book for children related to First Responders
This delightful story shares in the struggles that Wolf was experiencing being worried about his First Responder Parents getting injured at work or not coming home. The story also shares an underlying message about when it is safe to share when a friend is in trouble. This Feel Brave initiative has been shared in multiple countries and Texas was the state that was chosen for the US release. The books have a Law Enforcement, EMS and Fire edition and all books come with a guide for parents and care givers as well as the stress continue to know when you or your child is struggling.
Books are available for your agency, we just ask that you pay for shipping if your agency is outside of reasonable delivery. ( about $30 for a box of 70 books.)
