Correctional officers work in one of the most demanding and least understood environments in public safety.
Long shifts. Constant vigilance. Pressure most people never see.
This week, we recognize the role you carry – and the weight that comes with it.
To those who keep order where it’s hardest to hold – thank you.
At FST5, support is built for you:
Confidential 24/7 resource line
Peer support from people who understand the job
Clinicians experienced in working with first responders
You don’t have to wait until something feels “serious” to reach out.
