Mission Statement
Founded by a seasoned Firefighter-Paramedic with nearly 30 years of experience in emergency services and healthcare, RTF, Renewed Total Fitness, is a mission-driven organization dedicated to supporting first responders, their families, and at-risk communities through trauma-informed care, mental health advocacy, and holistic wellness programs. The organization is led by an Executive Director who began a career in Emergency Medical Services in 1996, gaining clinical experience as an EMT, phlebotomist, medication aide, and psychiatric technician. After returning to the healthcare field as a trained Omaha Firefighter-Paramedic, the founder dedicated over 12 years to frontline emergency service while building extensive credentials in Trauma Recovery and Crisis Response. These include advanced training in Juvenile Justice Trauma, Grief Following Trauma, Advanced Crisis Intervention, Emotional and Spiritual Care in Disaster, Suicide Prevention, and Mental Health First Aid. Under strong leadership, RTF has grown into a respected resource hub for emergency personnel and underserved populations. Through peer support networks, emotional and spiritual care, crisis counseling, and preventative wellness initiatives, the organization serves hundreds of individuals each year. Programs are delivered in collaboration with local governments, fire departments, police units, healthcare providers, and faith-based organizations. Backed by a leadership team with academic credentials in Psychology and Biblical Studies, and currently pursuing a Master of Science in Social Work, the organization blends clinical insight with community-based compassion. The Executive Director also holds numerous wellness certifications, including ACE and NASM Personal Training, USAW Sports Performance Coaching, NASM Nutrition, Performance Enhancement Specialist, and Mind-Body Fitness. RTF operates from a whole-person perspective—integrating physical, mental, and spiritual wellness to build lasting resilience. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, the organization relies on the generosity of donors, sponsors, and partners to expand its reach and deepen its impact. Together, we are transforming lives by changing the culture of care—one responder, one family, one community at a time.
About This Cause
Renewed Total Fitness is a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to transforming the health and wellness culture for first responders, their families, and the communities they serve. Founded by a seasoned professional with an undergraduate degree in Psychology and Biblical Studies, extensive theological training, and a remarkable array of certifications, the organization is built on a holistic approach to resilience. With expertise as a licensed paramedic, firefighter, pastor, and certified personal trainer through ACE and NASM, the founder’s vision integrates physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being, rooted in a faith-based foundation. Established to address the unique challenges faced by first responders, RTF operates a state-of-the-art Health and Wellness Fitness facility and delivers innovative programs designed to foster resilience. These initiatives, developed in collaboration with community partners and multidisciplinary teams, include: Injured on Duty (IOD) Workforce Strengthening: Tailored training to support recovery and return to duty. Mental Health and Suicide Prevention: Proactive mental health first aid, suicide intervention, and strategies to address anxiety, depression, and addiction risks. Chronic Illness Management: Support for conditions like diabetes and heart disease to enhance job performance and longevity. Family Support Programs: Strengthening first responder families by addressing the unique demands of their lifestyle. Community Bridge-Building: Programs to dispel stereotypes, reduce biases, and foster trust between first responders and the communities they serve. Recruit and Applicant Development: Preparing future first responders for the physical and mental rigors of the profession. RTF emerged stronger after overcoming a challenging partnership where its innovative ideas were misused. Now re-established at a new location, the organization remains steadfast in its mission to provide biblically grounded, evidence-based programs that integrate cognitive and behavioral life coaching, exercise, and nutrition. This holistic model has earned recognition, including a Trainer of the Year award during the founder’s tenure at 24-Hour Fitness, and continues to inspire transformative change. Your support can make a difference.
