Join the F2T Community

The F2T program was developed by fire fighters for fire fighters and aims to serve and support the front-line fire fighter. It leverages the benefits of a peer-to-peer model, which means that fire fighters can network with and learn from like-minded individuals from all corners of the globe. Fire fighters can engage with the community in two ways to suit their specific interests. They can join as a non-certified F2T member (with access to select F2T benefits), or as a certified F2T member (with access to all benefits associated with certificate level). In each case, the F2T program will provide a platform to enhance fire fighters’ personal wellness and fitness.

F2T Ambassadors serve as program champions that motivate, educate, empower and influence the wellness and fitness of other fire fighters. These individuals are central to the F2T approach and may assume a range of roles and responsibilities such as Creator, Teacher, Mentor, Leader, and Manager. They frequently support their peers’ wellness and fitness goals, assist with the design and implementation of department-led wellness and fitness programs, and are global advocates for wellness and fitness in the fire service. Ambassadors are supported by the F2T program via education, training and mentorship and given access to resources that will aid in the launch and maintenance of a comprehensive program.

The F2T program is committed to supporting departments with the creation and execution of a comprehensive wellness-fitness related program that suits their local needs and objectives. From the administration of a needs analysis of existing systems to the development of a comprehensive plan that addresses stakeholder interests, organizational culture, and administrative constraints, the F2T team is invested in working with departments, their Ambassadors and any front-line personnel to support existing or future initiatives. Leveraging the benefits of the F2T community will afford a unique opportunity for departments to learn from best practices, share resources, and collectively pursue a safer, healthier and more active fire service. The F2T program aims to facilitate this network.
