Introducing The Ima Project: Illuminating Hope

Meet Susan and Ian, a quintessential Kiwi family in New Zealand's South Island. Ian, a true country boy, cherished the rolling hills, hunting, and fishing.

But beneath this serene landscape, a decade-long silent struggle unfolded. Ian, a dedicated police officer, silently battled PTSD, leaving scars on his marriage and home.

Tragically, Ian's battle took a devastating turn, highlighting the pressing need for better responses to police officer suicides within the New Zealand Police Service.

The Ima Project is our unwavering response, a beacon of hope amid profound loss.

This issue extends beyond the NZ Police; it's a societal concern. Who will care for us if we neglect our police?

Often, it's women who seek help for their loved ones. The Ima Project empowers and assists women connected to police officers, whether mothers, widows, wives, or sisters – pillars of our society.

Your contribution to this campaign supports families like Susan and Ian's, providing:

🔵 Legal assistance for women after a suicide, navigating complex coroner investigations.

🔵 Comprehensive understanding of PTSD's effects on households for coroners.

🔵 Legal aid for those seeking ACC support for PTSD.

🔵 Employment law support for police officers facing investigations and career transitions.

Join us. Stand with us. Illuminate hope through The Ema Project. Together, we make a difference. 💙 #EmaProject #SupportOurPolice

I hope other people's soul-destroying choices, don't change your choice to care and serve us, our children, our most vulnerable. ❤️ It's OK to ask for help, when and wherever your adventure takes you. The only surviving parent of four and grandparent of four more. Cancer and accident having parted these children from two loved Kiwi men. Please stick around, and may traumas slip away until you have the right space and support and internal kit to dust them off. May your choices shield you, and your shield enable you to enjoy family, friends, living life. And our communities again.
