• Suicide
• Child Death, etc.

Additional topics explain the reasons for (and provide solutions):

• Why do police officers live 20 years less than the general public?
• Why do law enforcement officers commit suicide at 3-4 times the rate more than we are killed in the line of duty?
• Why career police officers in the U.S. are ranked first in Alcoholism, Divorce, Heart Disease, and PTSD!

Completing this peer support program qualifies officers to be certified peer support members as identified in Title 36-21-14, Code of Alabama.  This certification provides them with the identical privileged communication protection currently in place for a lawyer/client or doctor/patient.

This law enforcement training is RESTRICTED TO CERTIFIED PEACE OFFICERS, RETIREES, EMA OFFICERS, AND 911 DISPATCHERS/CALL-TAKERS with valid credentials.  Upon approval, chaplains and mental health professionals who comply with the requirements of Title 36-21-14, Code of Alabama, may be permitted to attend.

The officer should have a good reputation and understanding of the law enforcement brother/sisterhood and the willingness to step up and take action when another police officer is in need.
