America's only nonprofit for injured officers

Help has no jurisdiction

When an officer is injured in the line of duty, the help usually stops at a county line. Ours doesn't. Twelve states, three national deployments, and one number an injured officer can call from anywhere.

17,000+ officers served since our founding 501(c)(3) registered nonprofit $0 salary taken by our founder

Peer support means the voice on the other end of the line has already been where you are.

Are you an injured officer, or someone who loves one? Call 833-TWB-TALK and an officer who has been through it answers. This is peer support, not an emergency service - in an emergency call 911, and in a mental-health crisis call or text 988.
