Next Rung’s Mission

Next Rung Mission

Next Rung exists to make a real impact in the lives of firefighters and first responders by providing resources to tackle mental health issues that hit our profession hard—like PTSD, addiction, and suicide.

Their vision is all about action—offering peer support from those who get it, professional counseling, and treatment options. At FiredUp, we back this mission 100% because we know mental strength is as critical as physical readiness on the job.
