Join Volunteers of America and its Shay Moral Injury Center for a crucial conversation with expert thought leaders on the similarities and differences between moral injury and PTSD among first responders and the importance of understanding the hidden impacts of moral injury on them and their families.

This fourth webinar in our virtual series will explore how first responder agency leadership can play a more active role in supporting the resilience of our nation’s firefighters, police, EMS, dispatchers, and other law enforcement and emergency department personnel.
