关于我们

Reps for Responders (RFR) is a 501c3 established in 2020. RFR's mission is to support the mental health and wellbeing of all first responders, active or retired (Police, EMS, EMT, Military, and Corrections). To do this, RFR focuses on spreading awareness about mental health in the first responder community and advocates for first responders to reach out for help. By nature of the job, first responders see and experience more traumatic events than their civilian counterparts. Pair that with everyday stressors, and first responders are at greater risk for anxiety, depression, PTSD, substance abuse and suicide. Through fitness, support groups, and peer recovery coaching, first responders have a safe haven when they join the Reps for Responders community. Here, they can share their stories, their struggles and their wins whether it be about the job, or life in general. As a result of COVID-19, our gym was closed down. Now, we partner with already existing fitness facilities locally and nationwide to sponsor the memberships of first responders, host community events and be an additional support system for first responders and their families. RFR was founded by an active NYPD Officer who experienced the struggle of reaching out for help during his time of need due to the culture surrounding mental health and the job. RFR was born not out the desire, but out of the need to support and advocate for the mental health and wellness of the first responder community so that they can better serve themselves and the neighborhoods they have committed to serving and protecting. Find us at RepsforResponders.org and on instagram @reps_for_responders. Take a listen to the podcast "Inside the Labyrinth" featuring top athletes & first responders discussing mental health, nutrition, physical activity and more. Find it on Apple Podcast, Spotify and Anchor.

A huge thank you to everyone who donated, participated, and attended—your support makes this possible. We’re already excited and looking forward to making year three even bigger and better!

  • September is Suicide Awareness Month. It's the reason Reps For Responders exists. To our first responders, to anyone battling anxiety, depression or addiction... you do not have to suffer in silence. Suicide can no longer be a hush hush topic... it MUST be discussed... amongst peers and amongst departments. Too often in the news are we hearing of officers, veterans, and other first responders taking their own lives. We have to destroy the stigma and provide pathways for those struggling. Check in on somebody today. Let them know you're thinking of them. If you know someone is struggling, don't be afraid to ask the question "are you thinking of killing yourself.. do you have a plan"?. Was that hard to read? Because it is hard to write. But it MUST be addressed. If they answer yes, get them to safety and contact 988 suicide crisis lifeline which is available 24 hours a day or visit 988lifeline.org. We can all play a part in preventing suicide.

  • At Reps For Responders, everything we do is meant to support, empower and encourage our first responders to take ownership of their lives. To create a life they want to live... one where they have the tools to face any challenges that come their way and a support system to carry them when they recognize they can't do it alone. Our programs are designed to help first responders live consciously and make decisions that improve their wellbeing, from what they put into their mouths, to their self talk, to their fitness... small positive changes each and every day.. we #refusetobeastatistic. DO YOU? Nicholas Ricciotti MS LAC
