We are proud to recognize Prisma Health EMS EMT Amanda Duvall, who was honored last week with the JP Strong Award.

The Front of the Line for Heroes Foundation, founded by Laura Granger in 2021 on the one-year anniversary of the passing of her son, John Paul Granger (EMT, LODD May 26, 2020), continues his legacy of compassion, service, and dedication to others. Through this foundation, JP’s spirit lives on by recognizing those who embody the very best of the EMS profession.
