About Us

Peer Support Advocate Program

The Wounded Blue is working to de-stigmatize mental health within the law enforcement community through our Peer Support Advocate Program and community outreach.

The Peer Support Advocate Program has handled 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:

Donation funded

Whether you need 1:1 help or group support, our programs allow you to get the assistance you need, all thanks to the generous donations from our local communities.

We understand and can relate

Understanding the exposures and traumas law enforcement encounters on a daily basis, we are able to help ease the burden of feeling like you're talking to a stranger. We walk this path with you!

Trained & Trusted professionals

All of our team members are professionally trained for law enforcement officer's unique situations. All calls are kept confidential to ensure you can confide in us, and so we can better assist you through your healing journey.

We Listen

We understand that sometimes, all you need is someone to listen. We're here for you! From a bad day at work, to suicidal ideations and contemplation, We're here for YOU!! You're NEVER ALONE!

Independent & Confidential

We are an Independent Non-Profit who doesn't report our contacts to any agency. We are confidential and secure. Giving you the peace of mind and confidence to seek help that might otherwise be tied to your Agency's Peer Team.
