Summary
This bill amends the Homeland Security Act to establish a Law Enforcement Mental Health and Wellness Program within DHS to address mental health, suicide prevention, and resiliency for DHS law enforcement officers and agents across all DHS components. The program would conduct data collection and research on mental health and suicide, establish peer support networks, provide training and education on mental health awareness and suicide prevention, and require DHS components to improve mental health resources, reduce stigma, and protect officers from retaliation for seeking mental health assistance. The bill also mandates annual confidential surveys to assess program effectiveness and requires reporting of suicide incidents to a national data collection program.
