What is the R3 Program?

A revolutionary, non-clinical wellness program to heal moral injury and strengthen mental resilience in first responder departments and agencies. The R3 Program is a peer-driven, evidence-based initiative created with first responders, for first responders to help departments proactively address trauma, build resiliency, and restore purpose.

First Responders Are Facing a Crisis and it's Not Just Physical.

Suicide now claims more lives than line-of-duty deaths. Traditional wellness approaches often miss the mark—leaving those who serve our communities without the tools to heal invisible wounds.
