Dear FireChief Subscriber,
While tragic, Nicole Mittendorff's suicide has had the effect of forcing the fire service into an overdue and uncomfortable conversation about how we treat our fellow firefighters. Even if it touches fewer than one percent of the fire service, bullying and harassment needs to be rooted out, halted, understood and prevented.

We hope the following articles addressing the topic of bullying from different angles help arm you with the resources you need to address the problem within your own departments. 
รข€” Rick Markley, Editor-in-Chief, FireRescue1 and Fire Chief
