Today we sit down with three familiar voices to the show to address an ongoing problem in the Dallas Police Department and the first responder profession.
Welcome back on Sgt. Gordon Fulton and SWAT Lt Andre Taylor to have a discussion on the topic of alcohol use in the first responder community.
After some incidents over the last few months the Wellness Unit wanted to reiterate the Departments commitment to helping our own and putting our people in the best position to be the best versions of themselves.
In 2022 the alcohol leave policy was implemented and has been a successful tool to help our DPD family first seek help, then get help and continue their career and grow.
Assistant Chief Teena Schultz, Commander of the Wellness Unit, sits in as a cohost.
