We appreciated the Sheriff's Office including GFES personnel in this excellent opportunity. We look forward to now building the internal structure to ensure the wellness and mental health of our staff in what we can be a very stressful occupation for responders and their families.

Cascade County Sheriff’s Office recently hosted a Peer-to-Peer Wellness Training for first responders and the response was incredible.
More than 30 first responders took part in the training led by Montana First Responders Psychological Services, learning how to better recognize stress, support one another, and strengthen peer support within their agencies.
This training was made possible thanks to Montana’s House Bill 621, passed during the last legislative session, which allows local first responder agencies to create confidential peer support programs focused on mental health and wellness.
Taking care of those who protect our communities matters.

Most of us don’t think twice when we see a tow truck on the shoulder with its lights flashing , but we should. Tow truck drivers are out there helping people stranded on the side of the road, often in fast‑moving traffic, and their job is extremely dangerous.

According to national safety data, tow operators are killed at a rate of about 43 deaths per 100,000 workers, which is far higher than the average for most other industries.

Between dangerous traffic, limited visibility, and drivers who don’t slow down or move over, these professionals face life‑or‑death situations every single day.

In fact, On average, two roadside workers, including tow drivers, are struck and killed every month by drivers who fail to move over.

Many tow truck drivers report near misses or being hit by passing traffic while working roadside.

These aren’t just numbers, they represent your friends, neighbors, and local workers making a living while helping others in their toughest moments.

Montana’s Move Over Law is simple and it saves lives:
➡️ Move over to the next lane if it’s safe
➡️ If you can’t, slow down significantly
➡️ Always stay alert, eyes on the road, hands off the phone

Tow truck drivers are helping someone just like you. A few seconds of caution can keep them safe.

Slow down. Move over. Help protect the people who are protecting us.

Happy Birthday to EMT Bell! Steve is one of those guys who does it all and does whatever is needed. He is our primary Community Integrated Health Provider, spending hours at the Library, the Angel Room, and other local facilities interfacing with those with low access to healthcare. He has taught innumerable CPR classes and recently assumed the post of GFES AHA Coordinator. Steve is also leading an effort to ensure mental wellness and health on our GFES Team.
Thank you Steve, and have a fabulous birthday!
