40A:14-195 County law enforcement crisis intervention services program.
1. The governing body of any county, by ordinance or resolution, as appropriate, may provide for the establishment of a law enforcement crisis intervention services program. The purpose of the program is to provide post traumatic debriefing and counseling services for law enforcement officers and sheriff's officers who have been involved in incidents which may produce personal or job-related depression, anxiety, stress, or other psychological or emotional tensions, traumas, pressures or disorders.
A crisis intervention services program established pursuant to this act shall be an independent agency of county government. It shall not be organized as a division, department, bureau, or as any other type of subdivision of any county law enforcement agency or of any other law enforcement department, force or agency of any municipality within the county.
To preserve the integrity of the services offered under the program, the facility shall not be located at or adjacent to any law enforcement facility, station or barracks in the county.
