A DREAM TURNED NIGHTMARE
Renae in uniform
Renae Griggs is a former S.W.A.T officer and Major Crimes Detective who can attest to the overwhelming psychological demands of a police career and the emotional toll the job can take.
After thirteen years in law enforcement, Ranae was left a shell of a person and she nearly took her own life.

Believing she had been given a second chance, Ranae turned in her badge in exchange for a student I.D. She began a relentless pursuit toward an advanced education and helped set up Copline, a national crisis hotline that's staffed by retired police officers.
Today Ranae is devoted to assisting police departments nationwide to reduce the number of domestic violence incidents and suicides in police families.
