Western New York Law Enforcement Helpline Inc

Law enforcement is a difficult profession and has the potential to cause significant stress in an officer’s professional and home life. Suicide is the leading cause of death for police officers and occurs two to three times as frequently as line of duty death. Often the officer and his/her family do not know where help and support services are available to assist in addressing these concerns. In recognition of these unique needs combined with a reluctance to access traditional mental health services or employee assistance programs, the Western New York Law Enforcement Helpline was created. The Helpline is a volunteer program that provides 24/7 CONFIDENTIAL assistance, information, and referrals by trained Law Enforcement Peers and Family Peers to working and retired law enforcement officers, dispatchers, and their families for any issue that may impact work and family life.
