  • Track Wellness Support: Resource use is tracked at the group level, showing wellness teams what’s working without compromising any individual officer’s privacy.

24/7 Connection to Clinical Resources
Trauma-informed, culturally aware clinicians on call to support officers and leaders at every step.

Identify Those in Need, Proactively

Research-based data models proactively identify officers in need of wellness supports

First Sign Precision Wellness works differently. It combines data from multiple sources over time into one central, confidential repository, capturing the impact of significant events and their anniversaries, along with the toll of fatigue and sleep loss on officers working extensive hours. Through our research and academic partners, we understand the cumulative effect of exposure and exhaustion.

  • Supported by the National Police Early Intervention and Outcomes Research Consortium, led by the University of Chicago
  • Leveraging over 80 million data points based on officer behavior nationwide
  • Tailored to local data, agency conditions, and state policies

Connect to Resources

Getting officers to the right support, on their own terms

Identifying an officer in need is only the first step. The harder part is connection, getting that officer to real support before the moment passes. Traditional approaches put the burden on supervisors and document every step, leaving a paper trail that makes privacy nearly impossible, which is why many officers never engage at all.

First Sign Precision Wellness changes the path to help. Officers connect to the right resources on their own terms, privately and self-directed, or with light guidance from someone they trust. And the support isn’t a generic content library: where wellness apps stock up on volume, Benchmark connects officers to curated, research-backed tools built specifically for law enforcement.

The Benchmark Wellness Academy™ anchors that support. Developed with researchers at Washington State University and tested through randomized controlled trials at large urban agencies, it has been shown to have a statistically significant impact on officer wellbeing.

  • Officers reach support privately and on their own terms
  • Research-proven interventions built for law enforcement, not a generic content library
  • Backed by the Benchmark Wellness Academy and 24/7 access to trauma-informed clinicians

Track Wellness Support

Wellness teams need to know their investment is making a difference: which resources officers actually use, what’s helping, where to direct support next. The catch: officers won’t engage with anything that tracks them personally. The data that would help the agency is the same data that drives officers away.

First Sign Precision Wellness resolves that tension by design. Resource use is tracked at the group level, never tied to an individual, so wellness teams see the patterns that matter: which interventions are working, where need is concentrated, how engagement is trending, while officers stay anonymous throughout.

The result is a system that gets smarter for the agency while staying safe for the officer. No officer has to choose between getting help and protecting their privacy.

  • Group-level patterns, never individual tracking
  • Wellness teams see what’s working and where to focus next
  • Aggregate insight that improves support agencywide, with officer anonymity preserved

Officer wellness software helps agencies identify and support officers experiencing stress, fatigue, or other wellness risks. First Sign Precision Wellness does this proactively and privately, flagging when an officer may benefit from support so agencies can act before a crisis.

First Sign Precision Wellness is built to protect individual privacy. It surfaces when support may be needed without exposing sensitive personal details to supervisors, so officers get help through appropriate, confidential channels rather than through their chain of command.

Employee assistance programs and periodic check-ins are reactive and depend on an officer asking for help. First Sign Precision Wellness is continuous and predictive, identifying wellness risk from patterns in the data so support can be offered early, when it is most effective.

No. First Sign Precision Wellness is designed for support, not discipline. Its purpose is to connect officers with wellness resources proactively and keep careers on track, not to build a record against them.
