Our Purpose
Our mission is to improve the health and wellness of law enforcement officers through interdisciplinary collaboration, education, and research. We are committed to identifying opportunities to improve workplace health, access to healthcare, and health outcomes of law enforcement officers, while actively facilitating multifaceted solutions.

Our Leadership
"There is a mental health crisis in law enforcement. We need to immediately address issues which prevent care and health for those who protect and serve. Organizational and legislative changes are required to remove the blockage that prevents help."
