Thank your local department
Most departments hear from the public when something has gone wrong. They hear far less often when officers have done something right.

Three bills to help police officers.
We support these three bills. Choose a bill below to see what it would do and how to ask Congress to support it.
S. 419Care when officers are in crisisRead moreClose
Reauthorizing Support and Treatment for Officers in Crisis Act of 2025
What it would do
Would continue federal support for law enforcement mental health and crisis services, including help that reaches officers and their families.
Why we support it
Officers face traumatic calls and repeated stress. Crisis care and family support should be available before a difficult moment becomes a breaking point.
How you can help
Ask your senators to support adoption of S. 419 and sustain officer mental health, crisis, and family services.

Improving Law Enforcement Officer Safety and Wellness Through Data Act
What it would do
Would require federal reporting on violent attacks against officers, traumatic incidents, training, and mental health and wellness resources.
Why we support it
Clearer information can show where officers face harm and where training and support can improve. Better decisions begin with better evidence.

Ask your senators and representative to support adoption of H.R. 2240 and the work needed to make it law.

Invest to Protect Act of 2025
What it would do
Would provide support for smaller law enforcement agencies, including training, recruitment and retention, equipment, and mental health resources.
Why we support it
Small departments serve communities with limited staff and budgets. Their officers need access to training, equipment, and practical wellness support.
How you can help
Ask your representative to support adoption of H.R. 2711 and explain what smaller agencies in your district need.

Find my elected officialsA simple act of encouragement can make a real difference.
“Write a note of thanks to a police officer. Trust me, they will share it with their kids.”
Encourage an individual officer
A respectful word of encouragement may seem small to you, but it may mean a great deal to the person hearing it.
Show up locally
Attend a city council meeting. Speak up for officer wellness and training. Ask local leaders how citizens can support a safer community.
