Beyond The Blue - Vancouver Island Chapter

Erin Toplak, President of the Vancouver Island Chapter of "Beyond The Blue" joins VCPU Director and host Tom Stamatakis on this episode.  Tom and Erin are life partners and share some of their own struggles of being a partner to a police officer.

VI Beyond The Blue (BTB) is a non-profit organization that provides peer support to the families and spouses of police officers.  BTB wants to create a safe and comfortable place for family members to reach out to and find support.  Erin reminds everyone that a specific incident doesn't need to happen before you reach out to BTB and she encourages families to be pro-active in finding a strong support network.
