Ep. 39 Returning to the podcast is Sgt. Nick Bauer who was with the Seattle Police Department for 30 years. He retired just under a year ago. He worked many units, including robbery, Major Crimes Task Force and the Force Investigation team. His most recent role was as the sergeant in the Wellness Unit, a role he was in during the 2020 riots which presented an unprecedented need for officer wellness and support.

Nick is a founding member and executive director of Code 4 NW, a nonprofit organization that provides confidential support to all first responders and their families in Washington State. I thought it was important to talk about getting help, especially at this time of year when things can be tough for a lot of people. And I also wanted to do this as a follow-up to my conversation with Tricia Minkler in Ep. 38. Tricia lost her job in law enforcement after a struggling with alcohol and suicide. She got treatment all on her own and is grateful, despite the outcome, that she is in recovery. I wanted to talk with Nick about how Code 4 NW can help someone like Tricia get the help they need. You do not have to do this on your own, and you do not have to lose your job.

If you are so inclined, please consider making a donation to Code 4 NW, a completely volunteer-run non-profit organization. The need is great and the work they do is lifesaving. And please call them if you want to have a peer support conversation.
