Episode 009: The Resilience Overview Series Part 6:

Hey everyone! Today, we're all about collaboration—it's such an important part of what we do! We're diving into how building strong relationships and having a solid support system can really boost resilience in law enforcement. There’s a lot of research that shows having a good support network not only helps prevent PTSD but also speeds up recovery from tough situations. That said, we know that the culture of policing can sometimes make it tricky to create those connections.

In this episode, we’ll explore why collaboration matters, the challenges that can get in the way, and how we can all work together to strengthen those important relationships that help us stay resilient in this line of work. So, grab a drink, get comfy, and let’s get started!
