Skeptical culture? Stigma? Silence? Learn how to promote peer support in a way your department will actually hear. Retired Sgt. Gabe Lira shares real solutions that work.
How do you promote peer support without sounding like HR or a TED Talk?
It’s one thing to build a peer support team. It’s another thing to get your department to trust it. If you’ve ever hit resistance, heard the line “We don’t need that,” or wondered how to shift the culture without sounding out of touch, this episode is for you.
Gabe Lira joins me today with over 30 years of military and law enforcement experience, including building one of the first peer support teams in Southern California and co-founding the Public Safety Peer Support Association. Gabe understands firsthand what it takes to earn buy-in from the ground up, and he shares practical tools, common mistakes, and what works when you’re introducing peer support to a skeptical audience.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
- What to expect when your department pushes back
- Smart ways to introduce peer support that don’t sound like a lecture
- How to get buy-in from leadership and frontline staff alike
If you’re building or growing a team and facing resistance, this conversation is exactly what you need.
