“O God… help us to walk together, pray together, struggle together, and fight together, knowing that we are stronger together than we are alone.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

On this MLK Day, the Black Chief Officers Committee honors Dr. King’s legacy by continuing the work of unity, justice, and courageous leadership in the fire service and beyond.

Together we lead. Together we rise.
