Fortem Australia is a national not-for-profit organisation that supports the mental health and wellbeing of first responders and their families.
What we know: First responder work is inherently stressful. In serving our community, first responders are at increased risk of harm. They experience higher rates of psychological distress, psychological disorders, and suicidal thoughts.
How we help: We provide proactive support that enhances resilience and preparedness as well as recovery and transition from services, which helps to maintain the health and wellbeing of this vital workforce.
Since 2019 we have supported more than 13,000 first responders and their families.
