Hello everyone, my name is Jason King. My wife and I have been married since March of 2010, and together we have four children. I’ve been with the Spokane Fire Department since 2015, and before that, I was a medic in the Army with one combat deployment to Afghanistan. It was there that I experienced the most impactful traumas of my life. Recovering from those traumas has been a constant journey that continues to this day.

Being a part of the PEER team means a lot to me because it gives me the opportunity to come alongside others who are struggling to comprehend the things that we experience in this line of work. Processing through my experiences with military life, firefighting, and being a foster parent has given me many tools in the toolbox for dealing with trauma. It’s my passion to help others and be a bridge to resources when you are struggling through the trauma of not only this career but also life itself.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me, or any other PEER team member if you feel like you need help. It’s ok to not be ok. The PEER team is here to listen and help you find the resources that are out there to get you the help you need. I look forward to meeting all of you over the course of my career, see ya on the big one!
