Today is National Law Enforcement Suicide Awareness Day.

It was created to recognize the service of officers lost to suicide, raise awareness about suicide in law enforcement and to remind officers that help is available.

By recognizing the day, the hope is to reduce the stigma associated with seeking help.

1-800-COP LINE is a confidential, 24-hour international hotline.

It is answered by trained retired enforcement officers who can provide access to critical support.
