Public Safety Wellness

Lafayette, Louisiana - September 25-26, 2025

The physical, mental, and emotional demands of modern-day policing can leave officers feeling frustrated, unappreciated, overworked, and burnt out. This, in turn, leads to more frequent absenteeism, poor job performance, questionable decision making, and disciplinary issues. Participants in this law enforcement-specific course learn the subtle yet severe stressors present in police work that lead to behavioral dysfunction. They are given resiliency strategies, tactics, and information to combat the negative effects of short- and long-term job-related stress. Participants will gain increased awareness and tools to improve their mental, physical, and financial health and to support their career longevity and productivity.

The course instructors are veteran police officers who offer holistic, proven methods and are passionate about improving the lives of their colleagues. Participants will leave feeling increased engagement in their daily work, a renewed perspective on their career, and with a framework and resources for living a more healthy, balanced, and successful life on and off duty.

This training is recommended for officers new to law enforcement, veterans, administrators, and retirees.
