Hello everyone. While it may appear as if we have ghosted you all on social media, I can assure you, behind the scenes we have been busy! The team is in the process of launching our new 2024 Pre-Incident Education Reach Out Campaign. We are super excited to have a fresh new program to introduce to you all and better yet, it will come with continuing education credits too.

Hold tight just a little longer while we put those finishing touches on the program.

Today, we celebrate the retirement of 2 life long members of the Eastern PA Regional CISM team. From handling call outs, to pre-incident education, to always being there as a mentor. Thank you for all you have given to our regional team…and beyond! Lastly, thank you to each of their families for sharing them with us. Their knowledge, dedication, and willingness to help “strangers” in the Emergency Services community is second to none. Enjoy your retirement, John Dworsky and Joel Schwartz!!! It is well deserved!
