As seen in the documentary, "Officer Involved", That Peer Support Couple, Cathy and Javier Bustos, are retired law enforcement officers. Throughout their careers, they have experienced many critical incidents separately and together. On August 18th, 2010 they experienced the trauma of a line-of-duty death for a fellow officer and friend at Cathy’s police department in Cedar Park, TX. A month later on September 25th, 2010, Javier was in an Officer Involved Shooting in Austin, TX. Cathy & Javier were thrust into a new and changed world. They had to adjust their lives to the “new normal”. It is important First Responders get help in the early days after a critical incident. The days of the macho “shaking it off” are in the past. With four decades of experience, their mission is to help other First Responders and their families manage the stress of critical incidents.
Cathy and Javier are part of the Warrior's Rest Foundation Team of Clinicians, Peers, and Instructors
