40th Annual Dr Robert Lin
Recognition, Scholarship & Valentines Day
Dinner Dance
Whether you are depressed,
going through a separation, having financial
difficulties, feeling anxiety, or anything else,
you are never alone. Nothing is ever hopeless.
We cannot hide from this incredibly important
discussion. We must not pretend that these
things don’t happen, or that such tragic deaths
are somehow a fact of life. Importantly, we
cannot sit idly by and just pray that they don’t
happen again. We have to take action now. We
have to discuss mental health.
Each of
us is dedicated to the important business of
fighting crime and keeping New Yorkers safe. And
this is an immensely tough job. But your
personal life can be even tougher. You may have
no idea your office coworker – or your sector
partner, even – is dealing with a challenge for
which they see no positive resolution.
But you need to know, and always
remember: What seems unbearable today,
absolutely will be more manageable tomorrow. The
first step toward a solution is speaking to
someone. And if you’re worried about a friend or
colleague, you can make a confidential referral
to our Employee Assistance Unit on their behalf.
This is about keeping our family healthy
– and about saving lives. Your jobs require that
you spend so much of your work day helping
people in crisis. But, before you can take care
of others, it’s imperative that you first take
care of yourselves.

Seeking help is never a sign of weakness – it’s
a sign of great strength. Trained members will
listen and connect you with even more help,
around the clock. I implore you to seek out – or
to help others find – the assistance that is so
readily available to us all.
Thank you for what you do every day and, please,
always stay safe.
