Minds on the Frontline Podcast
Readiness, Response, and Resilience with Anthony “Gonzo” Gonzalez
In this episode, we are incredibly honored to welcome Anthony “Gonzo” Gonzalez who is the Coral Springs–Parkland Fire Department Battalion Chief assigned to the Training Division as well as a producer for the Gettin Salty Experience Podcast. Throughout his extensive and distinguished career, Gonzo has been at the forefront of some of the most challenging situations faced by first responders, including the harrowing Parkland shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on February 14, 2018. While we're not here to relive the events of the day of the Parkland shooting, we've invited Gonzo to share his insights into what first responder agencies, and indeed all of us, need to be ready for in the face of such devastating circumstances. Gonzo's expertise will guide us through the critical discussions on readiness, response, and resilience that can help shape a path forward from trauma to healing.
