Building a circle of support

that connects emergency responders, their families, agencies, and trained clinicians.

NERPSC™ is a community that includes emergency responders, their families, agencies, and qualified clinicians. Putting responders’ needs first allows them to better serve others and take care of what matters most.

There are times that push us to the limit. Life doesn’t come with an operations manual. Knowing where to start shouldn’t be so hard. Wellness and resiliency should be a top priority but is often the last thing on the list.

A message from our CEO:

Jaime Brower, Psy.D., ABPP

“I’m incredibly proud to be married to a law enforcement officer and to have been raised by a marine. I’ve dedicated my career to serving the emergency responder and public safety community because they truly are my family, and I could not be more honored than to work with them. There are many strengths, but there are also many challenges to being in a responder family. Their resiliency in the face of adversity, the ability to handle the tough stuff and support of their loved ones is unsurpassed. NERPSC offers supportive resources to the responder and their families in recognition of their service, which often goes unrecognized and underappreciated.”
