In collaboration with SCSFA, SCLEAP, and statewide peer support teams, the SC EMS Association (SCEMSA) is excited to announce a fully funded pilot project to support the mental health and wellness of first responders in the state of South Carolina launching this month.

You can learn more about the SC Public Safety Wellness Initiative here: https://go.firstresponsemh.com/wellness-initiative.

The SC Public Safety Wellness Initiative has built a platform called SC PeerConnect to help manage internal and external peer support teams, wellness programs, and provide support in the state. We believe that this app will significantly benefit the mental and emotional well-being of our first responders and we would like you to enroll in the program.

Any department of any size is welcome at no cost, and you do not have to have an existing peer support team to participate. If you would like to participate in this program contact Mandy Gattis for more information.
