We are joined again by Law Enforcement Chaplain Debra Fontes from Sacramento, California. Debra previously talked to us about Moral Injury in Episode 020 and today she tells us all about Police Week: the memorials, the vigils, the compassion and the camaraderie that sees police and the families of fallen officers come together at the local, state, and national level each May.

We talk about what happens during police week and why it's helpful to participate in these ceremonies. Don't miss Debra's insights on the role of a chaplain during the grieving process.
