Join members of the SHS Section Board and special guest speakers for this month's Coffee with SHS!
Frank Leeb (Managing Director for the First Responder Center for Excellence - Retired FDNY Chief Officer), Gavin Horn (Research Director with the Fire Safety Research Institute (FSRI) of UL Research Institutes - retired from the Savoy (IL) Fire Department), and Joe Schumacher (Chief Operations Officer for the Firefighter Cancer Support Network (FCSN) - retired captain from the City of Fairfax (VA) Fire Department - three-time cancer survivor).
You do not need to be a member of the IAFC and/or the SHS Section to join this session. Everyone is welcome.
Session information:
This isn’t a polished panel or a scripted webinar. This is the kind of brutally honest conversation that happens around the kitchen table when the coffee’s been on too long. Frank Leeb, Gavin Horn, and Joe Schumacher get real about cancer in the fire service: the risks we all know are there, the diagnoses no one expects, the fights that don’t end when the shift does, and the habits we joke about until they matter. There’s dark humor, hard truth, lived experience, and practical ways to lower your risk, without the lectures. If you work in this job, this is a conversation you need to be part of.
Pull up a chair.
