“Law enforcement spouse groups can be a huge support to officers, leadership, and the agency or department as a whole. They can also be a detriment if not run well. What makes the difference? If spouses want to join together to support their officers and each other, how can they do it so that they are organized, healthy, and helpful? This guidebook has the answers. El Dorado County’s (CA) THRIVE With 10-35 was built into a lasting spouse organization that not only knows its role in supporting its agency but understands the power of its influence. Drawing from tried and true experiences of THRIVE, authors Roe, Thompson, and D’Agostini have created a marvelous resource for others seeking to build a group of their own. This guidebook is thoughtful, practical, and loaded with great information—a must-have for all spouse groups!”
