Fran Graham is an International crisis response & trauma specialist, instructor & consultant with proven emergency management skills. Proficient team builder & strategic planner, with an emphasis in First Responder Peer Support & Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM).
Before Fran was a trauma specialist, before she was an expert in peer support, and before she was an international crisis response leader, Fran was a cop, she began to struggle, she didn't have the help, the support, or the resources she needed, and she lost her career as a result.
In this episode Fran talks about her path to becoming the resource she needed herself during that time but didn't have, she explains the difference between post traumatic stress and PTSD, the importance of peer support, the importance of leaders being educated on these topics, organizational wellness programs, and so much more.
