Tailored to the law enforcement career and highly interactive, we tackle communication, conflict resolution, caring for each other, PTSD, office politics, critical incidents, and commitment. A Marriage in Progress - Tactical Support for Law Enforcement Relationships. Written specifically for law enforcement officers on the subject of off duty life.

Law enforcement marriage doesn't always look the way you imagined, and that's okay.

Sometimes it means getting creative with time together. Other times, it means being honest about what you need, even when those conversations aren't easy.

There's no perfect schedule or one way to make it work. Just keep finding ways to connect, support each other, and make your marriage a priority.

Looking for a little encouragement or some practical tools along the way?

πŸ’™ With honor and reverence for each patch that has been gifted to us, we also place them on display and bring them to our events to share with our participants as we invite them to pray as well. We are grateful to be entrusted with a piece of your department and heart.

For the past 11 years, our Indiana State Liaison, Jenny Lanzen, has been part of something pretty special in her hometown of Elkhart, Indiana.

The annual Breaching the Barricade Law Enforcement Conference is a labor of love for Jenny, her family, and the many local chaplains and community members who work together to make it happen each year.

This year, more than 140 officers and spouses attended, and Jenny had the opportunity to share a 50 minute presentation called β€œThe Family Keeps the Score.” She talked about how the stress and trauma officers experience on the job can make its way home, often without anyone realizing it, and shared practical ways families can recognize those challenges, work through them together, and find support.

We're so thankful for Jenny and the heart she brings to this work, along with Jim Bontrager and the many others who have poured so much into this conference over the years.

We love seeing opportunities like this where officers and their families can learn, connect, and walk away with resources to help them build a stronger home life.

A law enforcement schedule can ask a lot of a family, which makes the time you DO have together worth being intentional about.

Share the meal. Take the walk. Laugh about something that has nothing to do with the job. Keep choosing each other.

The little moments of connection matter. πŸ’™

Supporting the officer you love is about more than navigating the hard days. It is also about understanding what may be happening beneath the surface and how the job can impact marriage, communication, connection, and the entire family.

When something feels different, it is easy for everyone at home to feel confused, disconnected, or like they are walking on eggshells.

So… What's up with my cop?

Join Vicki Newman, Founder and President of How2LoveOurCops, for an encouraging and practical conversation designed to help bring understanding to some of the changes law enforcement families may experience and equip families to navigate them together.

At H2LOC, we believe strong officers need strong support systems, and healthy law enforcement families are built when we have the tools to understand one another, communicate well, and stay connected through every season.

Hosted by Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.)

A HUGE thank you to the incredible vendors who helped make Boots 4 Blue such a special night. ✨

From the food and music to the details that helped bring the evening together, each of you played a part in creating an event where people could gather, connect, and support the mission of How 2 Love Our Cops.

And an especially heartfelt thank you to our venue - Hillenbrand Farmhaus Brewery whose continued generosity, hospitality, and support help us make this event the very best it can be. Having people who believe in what we do and continue to come alongside us means more than we can say.

Because of each of you, Boots for Blue was more than a fundraiser. It was a night centered around community and strengthening the families behind the badge.
Thank you for being part of it. πŸ’™

A heartfelt THANK YOU to the incredible sponsors who helped make Boots for Blue possible. πŸ’™

Your support does so much more than help create a great event. It helps How 2 Love Our Cops continue our mission to educate, equip, and encourage law enforcement families so they have the tools, resources, and support they need to thrive.

Strong officers need strong support systems, and strong families help build a stronger home behind the badge.

We are so grateful for every sponsor who chose to stand alongside this mission and invest in the families who serve right alongside their officers. Thank you for helping us continue this work. πŸ’™
