Testimonials
How Hot Wash Peer Support Helped
"Sean understands first hand how moral injury can happen in service or on duty. This is exactly what makes him so valuable helping peers who may be struggling with the past or deep soul wounds. I strongly recommend Sean. His integrity, trust and genuine caring nature will serve those around him well."
"Based on the work our organization does with veterans, I was astounded at the lack of resources available to first responders. Hot Wash's approach and mission are exactly what is needed...and essential to their health and well being."
"I was excited for the opportunity to help fellow officers who are looking for an outlet without fear of repercussions from anyone for expressing their thoughts, emotions or looking to dump that weight in order to continue to serve their community or reduce the stigma associated with officers seeking betterment."
