PSPR 3rd Annual 'Ohana Koa Luau Fundraiser
It’s time to get ready for the Public Safety Professionals Retreat 3rd Annual ‘Ohana Koa Luau fundraising event!
What is Public Safety Professionals Retreat?
Public Safety Professionals Retreat, (also referred to as ProSPeR or PSPR), is a 501.c.3 non-profit which conducts confidential, intensive preventive/early-intervention retreats designed exclusively for First Responders struggling to manage trauma- and stress-related symptoms associated with their profession. The PSPR staff of clinicians, peers, and chaplains work with retreat Guests to effectively address issues such as substance abuse, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress symptoms, sleep disturbances, and suicidal thoughts. Each retreat offers unique opportunities for Guests to learn specialized coping skills to improve their individual welfare, whether they are active duty or retired, while enriching personal and professional relationships through ongoing peer support, as well as chaplain and faith services.
Why Public Safety Professionals Retreat?
PSPR promotes awareness and healing by addressing the mental health issues that so many of our First Responders battle daily. Law enforcement officers, firefighters, emergency medical technicians, paramedics, dispatchers, and correction/detention officers commonly encounter critical incidents, crisis situations, and visually distressing scenes—the repercussions from which may impede work, intimate relationships, personal well-being, and may even develop into thoughts of suicide.
Unfortunately, negative stigmas surrounding mental health within the First Responder professions still exist. Senseless shame, guilt, and fear prevent countless First Responders from receiving timely, appropriate help. ProSPeR provides vital retreat experiences for these heroes who have sacrificed their wellbeing to keep our communities safe.
What can you do?
On August 24, 2024, Public Safety Professionals Retreat is hosting the 3rd Annual “ ‘Ohana Koa Luau,” which translates as “Family of Warriors Party.” This fundraising event is your chance to champion ProSPeR’s mission of providing culturally competent, transformative healing for First Responders.
Beginning July 01, 2024, ‘Ohana Koa Luau tickets will be available individually, as well as in multiple levels of sponsorship and packages. Please visit PSPR’s website at www.prosperetreat.com to learn more about how you can demonstrate your generous commitment to our First Responders (including opting to donate Luau tickets to a First Responder!). ProSPeR is also gladly accepting items and/or services for the ‘Ohana Koa Luau Silent Auction - please email for more information on how to donate.
