| - CopsAlive is about Cops helping other Cops, stay alive! When you read all of the statistics, it’s not about the bad guys killing us, it’s about other things like heart attacks, suicide, alcoholism and stress. Some of the other side effects of this career that help to ruin our quality of life are elevated rates of divorce, domestic violence and maybe even financial disaster. Law enforcement agencies around the globe spend millions of dollars each year to train their officers to survive armed or hand to hand combat, but most of them do not spend any money, or time, on telling officers what the real threats to their lives are and how to defend themselves from these threats. CopsAlive.com was founded to provide information and strategies to help police officers successfully survive their careers. We help law enforcement officers and their agencies prepare for the risks that threaten their existence. |

- The Force Science Research Center was launched
in 2004 by Executive Director Bill Lewinski, PhD, a specialist in
police psychology, to conduct unique lethal-force experiments. The
non-profit FSRC, based at Minnesota State University-Mankato, uses
sophisticated time-and-motion measurements to document—for
the first time—critical hidden truths about the physical and
mental dynamics of life-threatening events, particularly officer-involved
shootings. Its startling findings profoundly impact on officer training
and safety and on the public’s naive perceptions.

The Pain Behind The Badge, L.L.C., is not merely
a documentary movie about police suicide but an entire training
seminar designed to help police officers, police employees, and
first responders to deal with the struggles associated with police
work, Cumulative Stress, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
This training presented by Clarke Paris, an active police sergeant with more than 26 years experience, and Tracie Paris, a Registered Nurse with
26 years experience, also addresses issues such as police stress,
depression and the roles they play in law enforcement(relationships,
use of force, Internal Affairs complaints, motivation, etc.).
The instructors use their personal experience and training to make
this training dynamic, entertaining, and informative. Some of the
other topics discussed in this Police Suicide Prevention Seminar
are Peer Support, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
(EMDR), Employee Assistance Programs (E.A.P.), Critical Incident
Stress management (CISM), and the use of Police Chaplains, to name
a few.
This training is P.O.S.T. certified & approved in several states,
and is a powerful tool that can be used by agencies and organizations,
not only to train officers and civilians on the above topics, but
it hopefully will reduce Police Suicide by: educating employees
on the signs/symptoms of these stressors; convincing struggling
employees that they are not alone; and convincing employees that
the help already in place does work and they should accept it. Please
enjoy the web site and feel free to contact us with any questions
you might have. |
