Just wanted to pass on that the Bulletproof Spirit training class is now an online course in partnership with the International Academy of Public Safety - making the class available to all agency employees in a user friendly format. I appreciate anything you could do to help spread the word. Thanks, and all the best to you.-- Dan Willis

Suicide is the #1 cause of death for police with nearly 1 in 5 suffering from PTSD. “Bulletproof Spirit: The First Responders Essential Resource for Protecting and Healing Mind and Heart”  is a Wellness and Emotional Survival training class and award-winning book that provides for the first time, proactive wellness initiatives and strategies that help protect and heal the spirit of all first responders and their family members.  This essential training will save careers, marriages, and even lives and was written by La Mesa Police Captain Dan Willis (FBINA 241).
See: firstresponderwellness.com<http://www.firstresponderwellness.com/> for additional information.  The training and book have been endorsed by Kevin Gilmartin, Lt. Col. David Grossman, Bobby Smith, and many other professionals in the field of emotional survival—and it has won two awards: the Al Cole 2015 Humanitarian Award and the 2015 Books for a Better Life award. There have been 70 presentations in 11 states, including the FBI NAA annual training conference and the California Police Chiefs and Sheriff's annual training conference.
