About Us

The strength of our communities depends on the strength of those who serve them. At the American Board of First Responder Behavioral Healthcare (FRBH), we believe the mental health and wellness of first responders is essential to the safety and resilience of us all.

FRBH serves two critical functions:

• National Advocacy Nonprofit—we advance education, awareness, and community engagement to reduce stigma and push for stronger policies and resources that support first responders and their families.

• Accrediting Body—we set the gold standard for first responder behavioral healthcare. Through accreditation, we recognize agencies that demonstrate excellence in care, ensuring first responders receive the highest level of support.

Together, these two roles power a single mission: to protect the protectors and lead a national movement for first responder behavioral health.
