Operational Stress Intervention Dog
OSI’ Dogs goal is to mitigate the impact of chronic
traumatic event exposure for TExP at work.
Promoting the improvement of physical, social and emotional ability in Trauma Exposed Professionals (TExP)
Operational Stress Intervention Dogs (OSID) can play a key role in breaking down barriers and stigma attached to mental health conversations in Trauma Exposed Organizations (TExO). Paving the way for TExP to speak more openly about the effects of the job, the OSI dog’s presence is meant to mitigate the impact of chronic traumatic event exposure for TExP at work.
Operational Stress Intervention Dogs work and live with a TExP handler, who assists in directing the emotional support. They will attend critical incident callouts and post incident debriefings that impact both sworn and civilian employees, as well as attend meetings, trainings, and events promoting mental health services and resources for employees.
