The National Fallen Firefighters Foundation’s (NFFF) mission “is to honor and remember America’s fallen fire heroes, to provide resources to assist their families in rebuilding their lives, and work within the fire service community to reduce firefighter deaths and injuries.” NFFF’s website includes many of the available resources, including those directly available to families of fallen firefighters, online forms to request information and peer support, specialized grief materials, a calendar of events that includes support groups, and links to other resources and organizations. The website also features updated information on state benefits and access to individual state listings. They also honor fallen firefighters through messages and information shared by families and friends.
On April 19–25, 2021, NFFF is hosting a free series of events titled “Through a New Lens” to help individuals who are navigating the loss of a loved one.
