As a retired FDNY Firefighter/Fire Marshal, I am really excited to see this information posted here on Mayo Clinic Connect. The NFR is an unprecedented initiative aimed at lessening the disastrous impact cancer has on firefighter personnel, their families and the community at large. This long term project will impact my firefighting sisters and brothers well into the future. I am especially hopeful that underrepresented groups of Black and brown, as well as women firefighters, will take advantage of this opportunity to make an impact. JoAnn Jacobs (NY to JAX)

I am not/was not a firefighter, nor is/was anyone in my family. But this registry is exciting and extremely important, and I hope it helps people in the future. And @joann4 , thank you for your service!
