Specific to your question, I alluded earlier to some surveying we're doing directly with our members. We're identifying some pretty startling outcomes particularly around PTSD, where we're including some diagnostic skills on the survey tools we're using. On average about 30% of our members in major police departments are suffering from PTSD or diagnostic for PTSD. There are similar rates of people suffering from depression, anxiety. We have very few people in the normal range for depression and anxiety. That's our first step. We're trying to create a baseline in terms of what's happening in our organizations across the country.
To your point around the cultural or the organizational piece, we're trying to introduce a different approach to some of the organizational structures that contribute to operational stress or PTSD. which I eluded to as well. Another finding we're getting from our surveys is that a lot of the stress also comes from organizational practices.
We're introducing new methodologies around how we promote people, how we deal with issues around tenure where people are going into assignments and are becoming embedded in their communities, because they engage with their community quite extensively. Then they're being told they have to go to a different assignment, so they lose these relationships and that has a huge impact on them.
We're starting to make some proposals around looking differently at how we promote people. Let's look differently at how we deal with people, how we assign them, so we can take away some of the pressures and stigmas that go along with it. That's just one example.
