A Leap Not Taken
MVPSF continues to hear the need from first responders for more mental health support and training. We have brought a dynamic duo, Sergeant Kevin Briggs and Kevin Berthia, a suicide survivor to speak to you. This mental health seminar will tell their story on how they met in March 2005 on the Golden Gate Bridge and how Sgt. Kevin Briggs saved Kevin Berthia’s life. They will discuss everything from: Crisis communication, Suicide prevention and postvention, compassion fatigue and the impact your role as a first responder has on your own mental health.
What you do as a first responder can take its toll. Learn ways to identify and address YOUR own needs after your amazing day to day role.

Stay Resilient: The importance of a survival mindset
MVPSF brings together two courageous and powerful speakers. First, Officer Anne Marie Carrizales, a highly sought-after National Police Instructor and Public Speaker with 17 years of law enforcement experience. Officer Carrizales delivers a raw and powerful presentation designed to challenge the stigma of PTSD and America’s peacekeepers.
Second, Retired Sergeant Michael Sugrue, an author of the best-selling book, “Relentless Courage: Winning the battle against frontline trauma”. Michael served in the Air Force, has extensive law enforcement background and was awarded the Walnut Creek PD distinguished service medal in 2014 for his heroic actions during a fatal officer involved shooting in 2012.
Hear first-hand from both guest speakers on the survival before, during and after a critical incident. How to better understand the post-traumatic stress, how it attacks and its effects.
