Resilience Across Dimensions: Officer Health and Prosperity


Back to Package

Safety and wellness for law enforcement can be a difficult balancing act. Officers are asked to face challenges that threaten their health and safety regularly. This course will help you focus on how to be proactive with your physical, mental, and financial wellness. We'll specifically examine strategies for developing resilience, addressing and preventing suicide, and confidently seeking out others to build support networks.

This course will help you identify resources available to you and how to use them to create a comprehensive wellness plan that will give you what you need to maintain a safe, healthy lifestyle both on and off the job.

Each of these dimensions should be incorporated to promote healthy living practices and a better quality of life.

Meghann Holloway

Corporal

Howard County PD in Maryland

Meghann has been a police officer for 23 years and served in a variety of capacities including patrol, various special assignment sections, and as a primary academy instructor but it is her appointment as her agency’s first wellness coordinator that goes down as her most important and humbling assignment so far. Meghann has over a decade of experience as a health and fitness instructor and is currently completing her master’s degree in counseling. She carries numerous certifications including ICISF peer supporter, FBI hostage negotiator, Yoga for First Responders Train the Trainer, a guide in training for Boulder Crest's Struggle Well training, and is a Master Trainer for the emerging Power in Peers training presented by the FOP. It is her outside the box thinking and creative problem solving though that has allowed her to have large-scale impact even without the benefit of having a large-scale budget. By using her own professional experiences, personal challenges, and a hefty dose of humor, Meghann decreases the stigma and demystifies the experiences many of our first responders are having. She regularly teaches classes in understanding the brain science of trauma, achieving nervous system regulation, enhancing operational durability, and building family wellness. Meghann is a national level presenter and regularly consults with agencies who are looking to build their own robust wellness programs.
