Durham Regional Police and Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences have launched a new mental health app for police employees.
Police say the development of the app began two years ago, when they received a research grant from the Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development.
Students from Ontario Tech University were contracted to help build the app.
The app brings together all mental health services and programs available to Durham Regional Police staff and will be installed on all employee smartphones.
