SUBJECT: Officer Wellness Grant
ISSUE
The Police Department has been awarded a no -match grant to fund officer visits with a clinical
psychologist. The goal of this program is to promote law enforcement mental health and
wellness.
BACKGROUND
Good mental and psychological health is as essential as good physical health for law
enforcement officers to be effective in keeping our communities safe from crime and violence.
Our officers face the stress that we all experience in our day-to-day lives. However, these
officers leave their families each day to help share the burdens those in our community carry.
With alarming frequency, our officers witness horrible human trauma and endure elevated levels
of stress that most never attain.
By providing a safe and confidential time for officers to speak with a clinical psychologist, we
hope that officers will be able to unburden themselves and prevent the ugly ways that sustained
trauma and stress can manifest themselves. This will benefit not just the officers but also their
families, colleagues, and the public with whom they interact.
DISCUSSION
This no -match grant, administered by the Washington State Criminal Justice Training
Commission (CJTC), starts the day the agreement is signed and concludes on June 30th, 2023.
The agreement provides each officer with the voluntary opportunity for one two-hour visit with a
clinical psychologist based in Lynwood, WA with extensive experience in police psychology and
in working with members of law enforcement.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The grant fully reimburses the Department for these visits, up to a maximum of $50,000. The
Department will work with Finance to submit an invoice in March 2023 that includes expenses
for December '22, January '23, and February '23. Another invoice will be submitted in July 2023
to reimburse the Department for expenses incurred by the program for the 2023 months of
March, April, May, and June.
RECOMMENDATION
The Committee is being asked to review the attached grant agreement and forward a
recommendation to the December 12th 2022 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent
Special Meeting that same evening.
