Time and time again, a firefighter gets pregnant and it’s only then that a department realizes their pregnancy policy is dangerously outdated, possibly even unlawful. We can help your department adopt a comprehensive policy that will not only keep your firefighters safe, but will also provide guidance on how to navigate the following reproductive health topics:

  • infertility

  • pregnancy

  • miscarriage

  • lactation

  • adoption

  • reproductive health education

““The best thing you can do is the right thing; the next best thing you can do is the wrong thing; the worst thing you can do is nothing.” ”
— Theodore Roosevelt

What We want to Achieve:

  • Partner with a fertility insurance company to offer discounted fertility treatment for firefighters

  • Provide resources to help Locals achieve fertility benefits for their fire department

  • Team up with local companies and organizations to raise awareness and funding for grants

  • Identify options for new-hire reproductive health testing to establish a baseline for firefighters starting their career

  • Create an online education platform for nationwide distribution to increase awareness about the effects of firefighting on reproductive health

  • Improve policies/benefits to include paid parental leave and modified duty assignments while pregnant, trying to conceive, going through the adoption or fostering process, or recovering from a miscarriage
