This training will provide a better understanding of the effects of historical and acute trauma on those who provide services and care for the victims and survivors of a traumatic incident. We will discuss self-assessing for stress reactions and identifying warning signs that someone on your team may be struggling. We will also explore elements of stress first aid and the short- and long-term effects of primary and secondary trauma, as well as effective interventions that have proven successful for the first responder community.
Law enforcement officers face pressures that affect every area of life. This session explores spiritual wellness as a foundational pillar for navigating stress, trauma, anger, grief, relationships, and the weight of the badge. Officers will gain practical tools for strengthening their spiritual foundation, finding renewed purpose, and developing resilience for both duty and life.
