What is the Firefighter’s Cancer Support Network?

The Firefighter Cancer Support Network (FCSN) is a group of cancer survivors, caregivers, and volunteers dedicated to providing timely support and assistance to fire department employees and family members diagnosed with any form of cancer. The FCSN also provides awareness to fire service members and their families about the importance of cancer prevention and screening by coordinating educational opportunities with various health programs.

Founded in 2005, the mission of the Firefighter Cancer Support Network (FCSN) is to provide fire department members and their families with an opportunity to receive assistance when dealing with cancer. The network provides comfort, strength, and hope through their own experiences in dealing with the devastating effects of cancer.

The FCSN program continues to grow throughout the world. The program is supported and endorsed by the California Professional Firefighters (CPF) and the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF).
