Christopher Suprun, a Pentagon 9-11 responder, spent the morning of March 17, 2022, with members of the Sussex Police Department discussing September 11, the impact of coronavirus on public safety, and how public safety responders must be prepared for the next event whether war in Europe, another pandemic, or some other disaster and maintain their own mental wellbeing if they are going to be successful.
“I always enjoy building bridges with responders in other jurisdictions be they across the road or across an ocean,” said Suprun who has lectured to tens of thousands of responders over the past decade.
“COVID-19 has created a terrible burden on us all – which was predictable – and it is time we came together to support our fellow responders whether they are fire, EMS, police, or other disaster responders.”
