FEEDBACK
In this seminar, we will delve into the innovative officer wellness initiatives developed by the Waukesha Police Department in response to the traumatic events surrounding the 2021 Waukesha Christmas parade incident. After a devastating attack where an SUV was driven into the annual parade, resulting in six deaths and over 60 injuries, the department recognized the importance of supporting their officers’ mental wellness. This session will highlight how Waukesha Police implemented a comprehensive wellness strategy, integrating peer support with cutting-edge AI technology to monitor and enhance the mental health of their personnel.
PRESENTERS: Daniel Thompson, Chief of Police, Waukesha Police Department, and Robert Stanberry, Chief of Police (ret.), Keel
