When you support Under the Shield, your donation goes directly toward protecting the mental, emotional, and relational well-being of those who serve—and the families who stand beside them.

Your contribution helps fund:

Mission-Driven and Suicide Prevention Training

We provide specialized training designed for first responders, equipping them with practical tools to manage stress, process trauma, build resilience, and sustain long-term mental wellness—on and off duty.

Donations support evidence-informed suicide prevention training that helps first responders and their support networks recognize warning signs, engage in life-saving conversations, reduce stigma, and intervene early—protecting lives within the first responder community.

Stress Coaching

Your support enables anonymous stress coaching that helps first responders and their families navigate high-pressure environments, critical incidents, burnout, and life transitions with strength and clarity.

Breathwork Therapy

Donations help provide guided breathwork therapy, a nervous-system–based practice that supports emotional regulation, stress reduction, trauma processing, and recovery from chronic hypervigilance common in first responder professions.
