Dignity in Policing

This book is not about fixing first responders, it is about empowering first responders to care for themselves; and to be better armed to disarm their own stressed responses. The processes shared in this book are simple, fast, and intuitive. Under each first responder's figurative or literal armor is a human doing important work.

You have your service weapon, your taser, your pepper spray, and your handcuffs, but your toolbelt is incomplete without your dignity.

"The timing of this book couldn't be better to serve as a perfect resource and tool for emotional wellness". - Brad F., Chief of Police

"This book is not just a "good read". It is a deep dive into an essential skill for 21st-century police officers". - Rick R., Chaplain

Marcel and Dan are teachers, coaches, practitioners, and mindful human beings. Our goal is to be a spark for good a pilot light, always there, ready and waiting to ignite a bigger flame. Our pasts can be broken down into two eras; what we were like before we became emotionally literate and what we are like now.

Our highest hope is that you will read these pages and come to realize that t is time for you to reconsider your emotional understanding and competence for the sake of your well-being and the well-being of those you care about.
