ATTEND
The 2nd Annual Symposium will take place Friday, April 26th, 2024, and will serve as a platform for experts, first responders, and community leaders to come together, exchange ideas, learn about local resources, and explore innovative solutions to address the mental health challenges faced by our local heroes.
Whether you are a co-worker, spouse, supervisor, or chief officer, you have either already been in a position to help, or will soon be, and it’s imperative to gain a thorough knowledge of services and resources available to assist another first responder.
The Phoenix Project has partnered with The Forster Foundation to present their inaugural First Responders Ball directly following The Phoenix Project. The First Responders Ball will take place on Friday, April 26th at the Hilton Downtown Columbus. Tickets to the First Responders Ball can be bundled with your registration to The Phoenix Project. We hope to see you there!
