Joliet Police Battle Buddy Program
The Joliet Police Department is pleased to offer our "Battle Buddy" program to veterans & active members of the military in the City of Joliet. The program includes a select group of Joliet Police Officers who have served in all branches of the military and, when/if available, will be dispatched to calls for despondent and/or suicidal veterans & active military members. Currently, there are ~27 JPD sworn personnel in the program (ranging in rank from Officer to Deputy Chief), all who have volunteered and have taken critical incident crisis intervention training.
