The Canadian Men’s Health Foundation (CMHF) and Blueprint have joined forces to expand prevention and support programs that improve the health and well-being of men and their families across Canada. This merger brings together two leading health organizations with shared goals to reach more men, deliver deeper impact, and help families live stronger, healthier lives.

We've asked the provincial government, via Premier David Eby and his cabinet, for $3 million—in order to continue operating the First Responder Resiliency Program in B.C., incorporate fatherhood material into the program, and to double our operating capacity, over the next two years.

In February, City of North Vancouver Councillor Tony Valente submitted a motion to CNV Council expressing “Support for First Responder Resiliency – Health and Wellbeing of BC’s Public Safety Personnel”, which calls on the provincial government to fund the First Responder Resiliency Program for two years.

Due to a funding shortfall, Blueprint is raising money to support our Resiliency Program for British Columbia’s first responders, or 'Loon Lake', with support from the BC Police Association (BCPA) and BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Association (BCPFFA).

Three organizations committed to the health and well-being of BC's first responders have signed an agreement to continue the delivery of resiliency training for the next three years.

After reviewing and evaluating five years of data from the Blueprint First Responder Resiliency Program, the University of Canberra has released a report showing significant improvements in participant health outcomes.

After a number of suicides shook the British Columbia firefighter community to its core, there was a call for more education and action. In response, Blueprint developed the First Responder Resiliency Program, an upstream mental health support program built for first responders, by first responders.
