An event to help raise funds to finish our PTSD documentary!
We are happy to announce that Juno award-winning Canadian blues guitarist, singer and songwriter Steve Strongman will be headlining our fundraiser event with The Matty Simpson Band opening.
More announcements about this date to come!
First Responder: The Inner Battle will give insight into the world of mental issues, focusing on first responders. We want to talk to some First Responders currently working, and fighting this while on the job, as well as retired. Talk to medical experts about what causes First Responders to be more at risk, and what can be done to prevent, and pick-up signs of one struggling with mental health issues. Also, to talk to police forces and others about what steps they take to prevent, and help out once they realize someone on their force maybe suffering. We also want to investigate why it’s frowned upon to ask for help within these industries.
The goal for this documentary is to expose the common stigma for first responders dealing with mental health, and hopefully making them more comfortable in the future with asking for help. Hopefully we are also giving the tools to family and friends to see signs of Mental Health and enabling them to help out at an earlier stage.
Producing an independent documentary is very expensive. If you think this topic is important to you please donate and help us produce an awesome film.
