Impact your officers’ mental and relational health, safety, and resilience by positively impacting their greatest support system, their relationships! Officer mental health can impact department staffing, safety, image, and budgets. Officers with happy and stable lives at home are less likely to experience distraction on the job. Relationship wellness is essential to the safety of officers.
Educate officers and spouses to understand the root causes of problems with communication, mindset, conditioning, connection, and burnout that can be attributed to a career in law enforcement resulting in relational and emotional hiccups. Train couples to recognize behaviors and negative habits/tendencies that serve as warnings for mental health issues. Empower couples with techniques and solutions to open lines of communication, reduce stress, and increase relational and emotional wellness through true courage and resilience.

Assisting Individuals in Crisis & Group Crisis Intervention (3-day GRIN Course) Boonville, MO
2024-07-24 08:00 - 2024-07-26 17:00 | Turner Hall, 518 Vine St, Boonville, MO, 65233, United States
This 3-day course combines ALL the content of ICISF’s Assisting Individuals in Crisis & Group Crisis Intervention courses.
Crisis Intervention is NOT psychotherapy; it is a specialized acute emergency mental health intervention requiring specialized training. As physical first aid is to surgery, crisis intervention is to psychotherapy. Thus, crisis intervention is sometimes called “emotional first aid.” Designed to present the core elements of a comprehensive, systematic, and multi-component crisis intervention curriculum, this course will prepare participants to understand various crisis intervention services for individuals and groups. Fundamentals of Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) will be outlined, and participants will leave with the knowledge and tools to provide several group crisis interventions, specifically demobilizations, defusing, and Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD). The need for appropriate follow-up services and referrals, when necessary, will also be discussed.
