Welcome to Resilience Development in Action with Steve Bisson.

This is the podcast dedicated to first responder mental health, helping police, fire,

EMS, dispatchers, and paramedics create better growth environments for themselves and their teams.

Let's get started.

Okay. their teams. Let's get started. You know, you've heard me talk about this before. Getfree.a.I. Great for your note-taking, good for your transcript, good for your goals, good for everything that you do in a hippocomplying nature.

And if you use code Steve 50 at checkout, you will get $50 off your first month.

And also if you get a whole year, you will also get 10% off the whole year.

But getfree.a.I has freed me to do more things with my life, including work on other passions.

So get freed to do your notes, get freed from doing your goals.

Getfrey.a.I would code Steve 50 to get $50 off your first month.

Want to talk a little bit about William James and what you do there?

Yeah, sure.

So William James College is a small but mighty training college for Massachusetts-based social workers and law enforcement who are involved in co-response.

The college is well known for our forensic programming.

And when I was maybe five years ago,

I started to realize that I wanted to have a bigger impact.

You know, when you get older or further in your career,

you're like, what's my impact and what's the legacy I want to leave behind? And part of that was I've been individually

training people for decades individually, one at a time to do this work or presenting one-on-one

training with people, and I wanted to expand upon that.

And I believe that the field doesn't have a credentialing tool for co-responders.

It wasn't even a job that you could apply for when we started this work.
