Digest
SB 2555 establishes a first responder peer support network for firefighters and law enforcement officers. It requires the Texas Commission on Fire Protection and the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement to develop and oversee the network, which will provide peer-to-peer support, suicide prevention training, and technical assistance for mental health services. The bill ensures confidentiality of participant information and prevents participation from affecting licensure or certification. An annual report on the program’s effectiveness must be submitted to the governor and legislature.
