SHIELDUS
Self Help In Every Law-Enforcement Department (SHIELDUS) has a primary goal of breaking the stigma of mental health amongst Law-Enforcement and ending the suicide epidemic one wellness retreat at a time.
SHIELDUS will offer wellness retreats for Law-Enforcement uniquely catered to their individual needs. Our approach is designed to maintain confidentiality, while providing a safe space and community for all. SHIELDUS wants to offer the comfort of addressing topics related to mental health for Law-Enforcement, in order for them to continue serving our communities. We will offer mindfulness, meditative and trauma-informed support for all who attend our retreats, provided by trained professionals and peers (retired or active officers) who are highly skilled and trained to facilitate our wellness retreats.
SHIELDUS aims to address issues such as: grief, compassion fatigue, burn-out, divorce, death, violence, financial stress, Post-traumatic stress, chemical dependency, weight and nutritional concerns, just to name a few.
Our retreats are both stateside and international and will utilize "water as medicine", meaning we will incorporate water related activities such as: beach, pool, surf, kayak, boating etc. as part of the healing process. We are also partnered with licensed therapist, for those who may be at risk and suffering from severe depression or PTSD. SHIELDUS' number one priority is the mental health safety, wellness and healing for all attendees.
