Alabama First Responders Benefits Program

Firefighters are community heroes. The Alabama First Responders Benefits Program was created for cities and counties within the State of Alabama to help care for our 20,000+ firefighters and their families. 

Under ACT 2019-361, firefighters throughout the State of Alabama are entitled to an enhanced cancer and disability coverage program provided by their municipality, county, public entity or fire district for both Career Paid and Volunteer Firefighters. The Alabama First Responders Benefits Program provides multiple options for both career and volunteer firefighters and is a way to further protect our community heroes.
