why we exist

Quality Training is Suicide Prevention

We show up. We do the work. We care deeply. For people exposed to adversity or for those who protect and serve them, well-intentioned care can fall flat before trust takes root.

Brave Fight Institute exists to close that gap. We train licensed clinicians in evidence-based modalities and cultural competence so people can get the care that meets them where they are.

Suicide is the second leading cause of death for people ages 10 to 44. Among first responders, more lives are lost to suicide than to the line of duty.

The work we do here is, at its core, suicide prevention work.

WHY BFI

Built differently. On purpose.

Most cultural competence trainings for this community are long, rigid, expensive, and require you to pay again every year just to keep what you already earned. That’s not how we operate.

From Inside the Community We Serve

Founder Tempa Sherrill is a former paramedic, a police officer’s wife, a daughter and spouse of veterans. The lived experience isn’t a credential line. It’s the lens.

Flexible By Design

Live, on-demand, in-person, short-form, multi-phase. Built around the reality of a working clinician’s schedule, not in spite of it.

No Recertification Trap

Pay once. Learn it. Keep it. We don’t believe in charging you every year to hold onto what you already earned.

Care That Gives Back

A portion of every course supports Stay The Course Foundation, providing direct mental health services to the communities we train clinicians to serve.

PART OF A LARGER MISSION

A Sister Brand to The Brave Fight

Brave Fight Institute is the training and education arm of The Brave Fight, a clinical practice serving clients directly. Same heart, different door. Together, they form a family where clinicians learn best practices on one side, and clients receive them on the other.
