Cancer continues to impact firefighters daily. The Firefighter Cancer Support Network (FCSN) education team focuses on the health of firefighters by providing cancer awareness and prevention for programs nationwide. The program educates firefighters about the increased risk of developing cancer, encourages actions and behaviors that reduce or prevent exposure to cancer hazards, encourages healthy lifestyle choices, and provides information about resources available to firefighters should cancer take hold. The FCSN continues to lead the charge, working diligently to ensure every firefighter can receive this information. This program is a comprehensive four-hour train-the-trainer that provides students with the most up-to-date background knowledge and materials they can bring back to their departments.
