Our first loaner arrived today in Nahunta, GA in support of crews coordinated through Georgia Forestry Commission. Our second loaner is in route.

I know there are agencies out there, fighting wildfires with volunteers and surrounding agencies.

Just ask, we’ll send them a REHAB flag kit to make sure that all the firefighters know where to find respite!

When the incident winds down, we’ll coordinate getting the bag to the next department that needs it.

If your community or volunteer firefighters could benefit from one, just text us at 512–468–1932.

Stay safe out there,
Command GoBag Team

We hope everyone enjoyed FDIC as much as we did. Congratulations to Lt. Gaffrey (West Metro Fire Rescue, CO) on winning our Amazon gift card raffle!

More to come as we look for ways to support crews in the field.

In celebration of Autism Awareness Month, we’re proud to introduce our Autism Awareness Decal Program here in our community.

These decals help first responders quickly recognize when an occupant may be on the autism spectrum and may not respond to verbal instructions. This simple sticker can make a meaningful difference by helping us respond with greater awareness, patience, and care.

The Springdale Police Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) has also built sensory backpacks for officers to use while on duty, helping them better support individuals who may experience sensory sensitivities during interactions.

The program is free to community members in our city and the surrounding areas. The decals are easy to place on a vehicle or residence and can be requested through our website.

Together, we can continue building a safer, more understanding, and more inclusive community for everyone.

It was a great honor to meet John-Michael Keyes, founder of the I Love U Guys foundation, at the ALERRT conference last week in San Marcos.

I’ve worked with his team for about a year now, and they have built an excellent culture with an incredible mission!
