The uniform doesn’t make someone immune to what they see, experience, and carry home.
Law enforcement personnel routinely step into situations most people will never encounter. The call may end and the shift may be over, but sometimes the weight of those experiences remains.
On National Law Enforcement Suicide Awareness Day, we remember those we have lost and remind our law enforcement family that help is available before a crisis becomes a breaking point.
Check on your partners. Check on the ones who always say they’re fine. And if you’re struggling, reach out.
Confidential, 24/7 assistance is available for law enforcement personnel and their families:
• 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: Call or text 988
• Crisis Text Line: Text BLUE to 741741
• COPLINE: Call 1-800-267-5463 to speak with a trained retired law enforcement officer
• First H.E.L.P.: Visit 1sthelp.org for resources dedicated to first responders and their families
Sometimes the most important backup you can call is the one you need for yourself.
