The idea of peer-on-peer counseling has gained momentum over  the past few years. It is the idea of cops counseling cops.

Analyze the main advantages of choosing peer on  peer counseling other than outside professional counseling when  officers are in trouble. Next, examine the possible short-term and  long-term effects of using peer-on-peer counseling. Justify your  response.
Imagine that you are the new chief law enforcement officer in  the community where you live. There have been numerous officers involved  in shootings and police misconduct issues in the media as it relates to  your department over the last two (2) years. Propose how you would work  with the local media to reduce unnecessary stress for the officers in  your department. Provide a rationale for your response.
