Examining the barriers to mental health resources for police officers

The intention of this research project is to provide a detailed report in the field of law enforcement. Requirements and responsibilities of a police officer are extensive, as their role in today's society encompass varying and complex aspects, including exposure to conflict, violence, and tragedy on a daily basis. As a result, police officers are more susceptible to negative mental health effects, such as suicide and depression. This leads to the research question: Are police officers receiving the mental health resources they need? In order to gain a better understanding of the literature, there will be additional questions to this appraisal: what measures the effectiveness of the mental health resources, and where can the literature improve?
