Resources for Racine Police Peer and Family
Racine Police Peer Support was founded to provide information and strategies to help police officers & their family successfully survive their careers. We help law enforcement officers and prepare for the risks that threaten their existence. We do this by Helping Law Enforcement professionals plan for happy, healthy and successful lives on the job and beyond. We think the best strategy is for each officer to create a tactical plan for their own life and career.
