Recruiting Organization: Glendale Fire Department Crisis Response

The CR program is an essential part of the Glendale Fire Department’s service to the citizens of Glendale and the West Valley. A crisis team of two to three, responds with fire crews and PD, assisting those who are experiencing a 9-1-1 emergency. An emergency could be a house fire, the unexpected death of a loved one, a car accident, drowning, homicide, assault, or suicide to name a few. Once on-scene, the crisis team works with fire crews and/or police officers to provide citizens emotional support, crisis intervention, resources, referrals to agencies or organizations, or transportation if needed. The CR program operates the same hours as firefighters; 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The CR program works in 12-hour shifts and asks volunteers to complete 24 hours per month. Shifts start at 8 AM and end at 8 PM, or start at 8 PM and end at 8 AM. Shifts can be done Sunday-Saturday.
