Overview:

Did you know that law enforcement officers are at greater risk for suicide than the general population because of the unique stressors of their jobs? During this training, law enforcement officers will:

·       Develop innovative strategies that promote health and wellness.

·       Discover ways to interrupt unhealthy behaviors and overcome the stigma of help-seeking.

·       Discuss how they can provide support to fellow officers.

·       Develop a personal action plan that includes resources that they can access to continue their health and wellness journey.

This continuing education activity is approved by the International Association of Directors of Law Enforcement Standards and Training (IADLEST) and deemed valid for the purpose of in-service training credits with all participating states within the United States.

Training will be held from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., ET, with a 1-hour break for lunch (on your own).
