Police Officers Struggling with the Stress of the Job Find Expert Help via Cop2Cop Hotline, 24/7
Working in law enforcement can be among the most stressful jobs: police respond to traumatic situations including fatal motor vehicle accidents, suicides, shootings, fires, domestic violence, and much more. For more than 25 years, a peer support program called Cop2Cop has provided expert help to New Jersey police officers and their families. The phones are staffed by men and women who have retired from careers in law enforcement, so they truly understand callers' concerns.
In this episode, we talk to Retired Correctional Police Captain David Weiss, who has worked for Cop2Cop for 11 years. He has found his calling as both a peer support specialist and peer recovery specialist, helping officers deal with the trauma of the job, as well as addiction issues.
Help can also be received via chat and email. Visit https://njcop2cop.com/
The 24/7 hotline is 1-866-COP2COP, or 1-866-267-2267.
Cop2Cop is housed at the Rutgers University Behavioral Health Care National Call Center, along with several other hotlines.
