Trauma, Addiction and Mental Health Programs Exclusively for the RCMP
EHN Guardians’ RCMP Navigation Plan can help you find your way to recovery.
Every day, when RCMP members go to work, they face difficult decisions and dangerous situations. As a result, they experience addiction and mental health disorders in disproportionate numbers. But treatment from EHN Guardians is customized for their unique work and experiences.
The RCMP Navigation Plan from EHN Guardians can help RCMP members who are struggling with their mental health, substance use, or trauma symptoms find their way to the treatment they need. An effective treatment plan starts with understanding your unique needs. The Navigation Line provides a neutral, supportive space for members and their families to discuss their concerns and explore tailored resources. During the call, our team will help identify the most effective treatment options, whether you’re seeking self-guided resources, virtual or in-person counseling, outpatient support, or inpatient programming. We will outline potential goals for support and help define the next steps, ensuring the resources align with your circumstances to guide you toward recovery and well-being.
PLEASE NOTE: This is not a crisis service, but rather a navigation line. If you’re in immediate danger or need urgent medical support, call 911 or a crisis line, or visit your nearest emergency room

RCMP Face Increased Cases of Addiction and Trauma
A study released by the National Police Federation (NPF) found that “RCMP members reported on average exposure to at least 13 of the 17 different types of potentially psychologically traumatic events.”
And we are proud to say that the NPF has recommended our programs for trauma support across all divisions of the RCMP.
RCMP members are six times more likely to screen positive for any mental health disorder than the general population.
RCMP members are almost twice as likely to screen positively for Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Major Depressive Disorder as other public safety personnel.
RCMP are more than twice as likely to screen positively for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Panic Disorder.
