About the Course
There is a saying in law enforcement, “Practice officer safety; make sure you go
home at the end of your shift.” However, making it home is just the beginning.
“Watch Your Six: Mental Wellness Resiliency” encourages and equips all law
enforcement officers and their families to guard the six most vulnerable areas of life
to promote health and well-being. The course talks about the issues facing law
enforcement to create awareness of the problems and to offer officers resources
needed to ensure every part of their lives is healthy.
