We Got your six
"Law enforcement personnel are so used to helping others, that when we are in need, we forget to ask for help."
ALEES understands this statement all too well. Law enforcement personnel go through the triumphs and tragedies of life just like everyone else, but sometimes we forget to ask for help, to reach out and to accept the help that is offered. We are family - we bleed blue - we must take care of one another!

I'm Retired Sgt. Steve Wamsley. I was with the Phoenix Police Department for 35 years sworn, and 4 years as a reserve Sgt. During that time after being in several critical incidents, I began to learn about the positive effects of moving forward after being involved in one. I was able to assist the police department with starting our first CISM team which is still in effect today and is one of the premier teams in the nation. I was asked to create a presentation on "How to Heal" from a law enforcement perspective which I have been teaching in a power point all over the state for the last 5 years. Please let me know if I can help in anyway with your agency, an employee, or give a presentation.
