Legacy Place Society

Supporting Law Enforcement, Emergency Medical /Fire Services, 911, Veterans, Military Personnel, Front Line Health Care AND THE FAMILIES

Legacy Place Society exists to build family resiliency and legacies to withstand the unique challenges of the Peace Officer, Fire Fighters, Emergency Medical Services, 911 Dispatch and Military Professions.
The Charity does not replace any of the typical Employee Assistance Programs and is not a duplication of existing charities.
Our work is done while acting as a bridge between the professional lives and their families in collaboration with the Services and other standing Charities specific to each individual Service.
Our core values include Family, Empathy, Diversity, Inclusivity, Confidentiality, Collaboration and Integrity.
Our objectives are about providing relevant and practical resources to help in early interventions, introduce resiliency possibilities and leave lasting legacies with the individual and family that is currently serving or retired.
