Going Direct with CAL FIRE Local 2881

Join us for a conversation led by State Supervisor Director Jeremy Salizzoni about the men and women who serve our country and protect our state — and what we can do to better support them. This episode dives into the realities of military leave, the challenges our members face, and the responsibility we share in taking care of those who step up twice.

In this episode, we sit down with ESS for an open conversation about the mental health challenges our members face, and the support systems built to carry them through. From peer support and counseling resources to crisis response and long-term wellness tools, ESS breaks down what’s available, how to access it, and why no firefighter should ever feel alone in this work.

Taking care of our own is more than a promise, it's part of who we are. In this episode, the Honor Guard and Family Liaisons share how they show up for families during their hardest moments with compassion, dignity, and unwavering solidarity.

What does real, sustainable firefighter health look like? This episode explores how Hundred Health is partnering with CAL FIRE Local 2881 to build a healthier future for California's firefighters.

CAL FIRE Director Joe Tyler and Local 2881 President Tim Edwards sit down for a candid conversation about partnership, progress, and the future of CAL FIRE.
