This event is open to adult men ages 18+ in the Fire Hero Family community (husbands/male life partners, fathers/stepfathers, sons/stepsons, brothers/stepbrothers) whose firefighter has been honored or is approved to be honored at the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial. For many men sadness can be a difficult emotion to navigate and emotional processing occurs differently in men than women. Men feel they must handle their emotions alone or they will show signs of weakness. Instead of emotional expression, men benefit greatly from doing things. Projects or hobbies can lessen a men's sadness and depression and provide purpose. Staying involved in favorite activities gives men space and allows them the time needed to process their feelings. The retreat is designed to build connections, skills, and insight to face grief and other life challenges.
