First Responders are Focus for Healthy Cass Coalition

The Cass County Coalition for Mental Wellness is holding a listening session on Monday, November 9, 2026 at 1:30 pm at the Cass County Community Center. The group is looking for local EMS personnel, law enforcement, firefighters, dispatchers, probation and parole professionals and any other first responders to participate.

That’s Cass County Wellness Coordinator Grace McAfee, who says a recent event speaker sparked the idea for the session.

McAfee says they don’t have all the answers, but through the discussion they hope to close gaps and provide services to better support first responders and the people they serve.
