Blue H.E.L.P. Walk

9/30/2019

 
On Saturday, September 28, LCC K-9 Police Ministry Dog Amos (Our Savior's Way - Ashburn, Virginia) attended the Law Enforcement Suicide Awareness Walk in Haymarket, Virginia.
 
The walk was organized by Blue H.E.L.P. to acknowledge the service and sacrifice of law enforcement officers lost to suicide, bring awareness to the issue of post-traumatic stress, reduce the stigma surrounding emotional health, and assist officers in their search for healing.
 
Proceed will help fund department training, assist families, grief camps, and costs associated with awareness and prevention.
 
Blue H.E.L.P believes it's not how they died that matters, it's how they lived. Officers who suffer emotional injuries should be recognized, and their service to the community honored.
 
Sadly, more officers are lost to suicide than line of duty incidents. It was a blessing for Police Ministry Dog Amos to be there for this emotional event, and offer comfort to m
any.

Run for the Brave & Finest

9/30/2019

 
On Sunday, September 29, LCC K-9 Police Ministry Dogs Addie and Leah (Immanuel - Danbury, Connecticut) attended the 6th Annual "Believe 208: Run for the Brave & Finest" 5K Run in East Hartford, Connecticut.

His wife, Trish, organizes the event to bring awareness to first responder post-traumatic stress (PTS) and suicide. All proceeds go toward helping first responders and family members with training and resources related to maintaining well-being.
 
LCC K-9 Police Ministry Dogs Addie and Leah were blessed to offer comfort and support to Trish Buchanan, first responders, and other family and friends as they gathered to remember loved ones.

Toledo Police Department

9/30/2019

 
On Thursday, September 26, LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Anna (Trinity - Toledo, Ohio) visited the Toledo Police Department to say hello to some of her friends.
 
Chief Kral is a very busy man, but Anna had an appointment to see him because he always enjoys her visits, and she didn't want to miss him!
 
Anna also spent some time with a few ladies from the Records Department, and they appreciated this special stress relief visit.
