Participate in the National Wellness Survey

Fairfax County Police Department has partnered with the United States Marshal Service and Nova Southeastern University (FL) to develop a nationwide Wellness Survey. This survey will provide necessary data about the impacts of trauma and the overall mental health of public safety.

This survey was designed for public safety by public safety, in the hopes many of you will take the time to participate to show the impacts of our profession from exposures to traumatic and critical events, COVID and the current political climate across the country. This information will be used to advocate for America’s First Responders on a national level.

The study not only assists in identifying new challenges our first responders are facing, but also helps to modify current or develop additional treatment options, training programs, and future goals in assisting first responders. This survey is voluntary, but the more people who participate the more data we will have to advocate for our nation’s first responders.

The survey is completely anonymous – no personal information is captured and the IP address is stripped from submission, protecting you from the possibility of identification. The professors at Nova Southeastern University are retired law enforcement and have volunteered to help us with their team for the right reasons.  It is important to collect honest answers to questions that may be sensitive for some to share, but every precaution has been taken to protect your identity.
