In this episode of The Brief: Wellness Edition, Emily Hitchings and Greg Friese mark the anniversary of 9/11 by honoring and never forgetting the sacrifice of firefighters, law enforcement officers, EMTs and paramedics. They join first responders and communities across the nation in reflecting and remembering. Honoring this day isn’t only about national events — it’s also about recognizing the moments that shape first responders locally, whether widely reported or not. Marking anniversaries is a way to process, honor, and carry forward the meaning of those experiences.
“It’s OK to grieve. It’s OK to come together. It is really important that we take time to remember.”
