R4 Suicide is not an Option- Idaho Falls CANCELLED LACK OF REGISTRATIONS

CANCELLED

Credit Hours: 8
Course Number: R4138

Description:

America’s law enforcement officers are significantly more likely to die by suicide than being murdered in the line of duty. For years mental health professionals have come alongside officers with treatment, assistance, and counsel. Yet, the suicide rate continues to increase. Can this ever-increasing suicide rate among these warriors be stopped?
In this seminar, Law Enforcement Chaplain Tim Rupp approaches suicide from a spiritual health perspective. Rupp argues there is meaning to life beyond the individual. Humans are not only physical and mental beings, but spiritual beings who yearn for a yet to be experienced life beyond. This eternal hope instilled in every person gives meaning to life and a reason to hope. Hope for more, hope for new, hope for better. Rupp believes that this intrinsic hope is a key to reduce the suicide rate among our warriors.

Target Audience: Law enforcement officers, military, chaplains, mental health professionals, peer support team, and clergy who minister to LEOs

R4138 Peer Support- Pocatello FREE

September 23-26, 2024 0800-1700

Credit Hours: 32
Course Number: R4138

Description:

Law enforcement is one of the most stressful occupations that exist. Each day, a law enforcement officer is faced with more stress than an average person faces in five years. The daily threat of death, the succession of one high stress event after another, the in-depth scrutiny of our actions by others, and the culture of denial we have created causes us to have issues no other occupation has. Our life expectancy is much shorter than average, our rate of alcohol and drug abuse is high, our suicide rate is high, and we have done very little to address these issues.

Peer Support is the best mechanism to remedy our failures in addressing the elephant in the room. Who knows more about a law enforcement officer’s life than another officer? This thirty-two-hour course will train each attendee to “coach” fellow officers through the emotional and psychological issues they face daily.

Topics include responding to officer involved shootings and other high stress events, general job stress, suicide recognition and prevention, the recognition of mental disorders, family issues, line of duty deaths, and one-on-one ‘coaching’ of other officers. Protocols for creating or improving peer support teams will be discussed as well as policy and confidentiality/privilege.

Attendees must be law enforcement officers, dispatchers, chaplains, or behavioral health professionals who work with law enforcement. This is a very unique class developed by law enforcement for law enforcement. The personal benefits of this course and using it to help other officers is life changing.
