NAMI California Listening Sessions for Law Enforcement

August 2020

NAMI California hosted Listening Sessions for Law Enforcement in August 2020

Summary of the Event

California law enforcement representatives joined us for conversations about officer wellness led by law enforcement.

NAMI California is teaming up with the State of California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST)  for a training program to support officer wellness and address trauma. NAMI COPE is a resilience-building peer support program designed specifically for law enforcement, modeled on the NAMI Connection support group, a peer-led, 90-minute, weekly confidential support group for those experiencing mental health challenges.

Listening sessions were facilitated by law enforcement and for law enforcement to share their insights and experiences on officer wellness.
