About Us
Peer Support Advocate Program
The Wounded Blue is working to de-stigmatize mental health within the law enforcement community through its Peer Advocate Support Program and community outreach. The Peer Advocate Support Program handles nearly 100 calls per week from officers. With each of our team members being either active duty or a former officer, many with disabling injuries, we are able to help in a way other support groups would not be able to. They understand the environment, what they go through on a day-to-day basis and the PTSD/PTSI that comes with it.
Key benefits of our Peer Support Program:
