Celebrate Safely This Fourth of July!

Fireworks may seem like fun, but they can cause devastating injuries, destructive fires, and life-changing consequences in just seconds. Remember, all fireworks are illegal in the City of Los Angeles.

Today, we honor the memory of Fireman Elin Imbs, who died in the line of duty on July 2, 1940. Elin was a husband and father of three.

Pictured are members of Engine Company 46 at Fire Station 46 on June 25, 1939, just one year before his death.

This year, try swapping sparklers out for glow sticks, confetti poppers, or colored streamers... just as fun, and a whole lot safer for little hands.

Today is National PTSD Awareness Day.

When firefighters respond to emergencies, they witness tragedy, trauma, and loss that most people will never experience. While protecting our communities is an honor, those experiences can leave lasting psychological injuries that deserve the same recognition and treatment as any physical injury.

The @IAFFofficial, @CAFirefighters, and UFLAC have been leaders in spreading awareness and promoting legislation to protect our first responders and enable them to get the help they need.

Today, UFLAC honors every firefighter who has struggled in silence, every family who has stood beside them, and every organization working to improve behavioral health in the fire service. Together, we can continue building a culture where seeking help is a sign of strength - and where protecting those who protect us remains a priority.
