One of the biggest challenges to policing in a democratic society is maintaining an emotionally healthy workforce who can deal with matters and issues that the rest of society cannot handle. Teaching law enforcement professionals to survive and live through a police career cannot be limited to just teaching operational tactical survival skills. Teaching officers the skills of emotional survival are just as important.
