Springdale Fire Department
Springdale Fire Department and I (Nikki Penn) are partnering together in an effort to give each Springdale firefighter the opportunity to achieve and maintain physical and mental wellness.
​
It is my belief that the stressors inherent with your job can be managed in such a way as to decrease burnout, sickness, constant anxiety and the lackluster for life that can develop.
​
Over the next year, we will be offering classes, counseling sessions, information through email blasts, and opportunities for your spouses and significant others to be involved.
​
If you see an area of mental wellness that is not being covered, please feel free to reach out to me. I would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions.
Things You Should Know About
The Arkansas State Firefighter Convention is coming up in June 8th-11th. I would love for you to stop by my class on Thursday!
Firefighter spouses and significant others have a Facebook page to get information, events, and updates. Sign up here.
Counseling sessions can be set up by emailing npenn@nikkipenn.com.
