The Probation and Pretrial Wellness Committee commenced work in October 2007. Officer wellness was not only becoming a focal point
for officers but a priority for our system. Today, the Committee has eight members and focuses on all staff. The Committee is working to
increase awareness of mental health services that are available for all staff, promote the use of the Committee’s wellness electronic
learning modules, make curriculum recommendations about mental health and fitness awareness to Federal Probation and Pretrial
Academy staff, and assist districts in creating internal wellness committees and critical incident stress management (CISM) teams.
