ABOUT THE FILM

Emergency first responders are suffering from post-traumatic stress in record numbers, 
but they are often afraid of losing their job if they ask for help; this must change.

PTSD911 is a documentary film about real people: normal, average human beings who have chosen to work in professions that require above average heroism, fortitude, and resolve. These men and women have jobs that require a willingness to face things that most of us can’t even imagine, yet maintain a high level of dignity and professionalism. First responders in fact repeatedly see and experience things that most of us will never see, causing compound issues related to post-traumatic stress injuries and disorders.

"We expect them to show up when we call and take care of us when we’re at our worst!" - Conrad Weaver

They show up, no matter what. Heroes, yes! Yet they are human beings just like the rest of us with families, husbands, wives, children, brothers, sisters, and parents. They are firefighters, police officers, emergency medical technicians, paramedics, and 911 dispatchers. They are first responders. PTSD911 tells their story and provides case studies of agencies who are doing things right.
