Answering the Call: Surviving Trauma and Finding Hope with Deborah Green
With over three decades of dedicated service in law enforcement communications and military operations, Deborah Green has spent her life protecting and supporting those on the front lines.
Her career began in 1986 with the California Army National Guard, where she served as a Communications Specialist and Military Police Officer until 1992. Transitioning into emergency dispatching, she worked for the Sacramento Police Department (1992-1993) before joining the El Dorado County Sheriff's Department, where she spent 27 years (1994-2021) as a critical lifeline for officers in the field.
On October 23, 2019, tragedy struck when a deputy under her watch was killed in a critical incident. The emotional and psychological impact of that event, combined with years of accumulated trauma, led to her PTSD and cPTSD diagnosis in October 2020. After retiring on June 1, 2021, Deborah became a passionate advocate for mental health awareness, peer support, and breaking the stigma surrounding PTSD in first responders.
Now, as a guest on the No One Fights Alone podcast with hosts Brad Shepherd and Max Morgan, Deborah shares her deeply personal journey of resilience, healing, and hope, offering strength and understanding to those who continue to serve.
