What a special morning for our C-Shift crew at Station 73 and members of our Prevention Bureau.
We were honored to be invited to the first 9/11 remembrance event at Summit Christian School, and the students and staff put together a truly wonderful tribute.
Our personnel were honored alongside other first responders, and we were especially touched to see a slideshow featuring photos of our own team. The fifth grade performance was exceptional too!
Thank you to Summit Christian School for inviting us to be part of such a meaningful morning and for taking the time to honor the heroes who serve our community. We are grateful to have been included. ... See MoreSee Less

September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month.
This year, IMFD members are being introduced to the Zero Suicide Framework for the Florida Fire Service. The Zero Suicide Framework development was initiated in 2025 under the support and guidance of the Director of the State Fire Marshal's Office, Joanne Rice.
Built around the nationally recognized and evidence-based Zero Suicide framework, this initiative is designed specifically for the culture, realities, and needs of the fire service. The framework reflects the voices and lived experience of those who understand the realities of the job, creating a practical, coordinated approach focused on building resiliency, connection, and purpose across Florida’s fire service.
The first phase of the Framework was launched in July 2026 and provides tangible, deliverable resources for departments to distribute and use to build resiliency, connection, and resources throughout their agency. All of the resources are available on the website linked below.
At its core, Zero Suicide Florida Fire Service is about taking care of each other. The initiative recognizes that suicide prevention cannot rely on one training, one policy, or one person. It requires a coordinated system where leaders are prepared, peers know how to respond, families are included, and members can access trusted, fire service-informed support when they need it most.
