4th Annual Invisible Wounds Conference for First Responders

Invisible Wounds

The 4th Annual Invisible Wounds Conference for First Responders was held in Walkerton, Ontario on October 9, 2019.

This conference provided opportunities to increase awareness of how to build resiliency skills to help deal with occupational stress injuries that are inherent in the profession. Speakers, most with lived experience, shared how Peer Support and learned coping skills assist in prevention and recovery.


This aim of the conference was to assist First Responders interested in learning about and addressing relationships issues, anger, and mental health challenges, including, but not limited to, hypervigilance, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, PTSI, and PTSD.
