Brotherhood is a verb

At the Minnesota Mayhem Fire Conference, we believe brotherhood is a verb! That means showing up for one another, sharing knowledge, and taking care of our own—on and off the job. Below, you’ll find educational and mental health resources to help you sharpen your skills and look after yourself and your crew. More resources are coming soon, so keep checking back.

NEXT RUNG’S mission is to help combat the mental health issues among Firefighters and First Responders. We want to be a beacon of hope during these difficult times that many of us face. Mental health issues and an alarming amount of suicides have become a major problem among our profession.

Overwhelmingly, NEXT RUNG’S desire is to provide resources for our brothers and sisters so they can take ACTION. Awareness is great, but just like words with out action are dead, so is awareness without proper resources. So if you or a firefighter/first responder you know is in need, simply text
