STATEMENT FROM MAYOR DE BLASIO ON DEATH OF NYPD OFFICER


“Last night our city mourns at the news that we’ve lost another NYPD officer to suicide. These tragedies cannot continue. We cannot lose any more of our officers. We cannot leave parents, spouses and children at home waiting for loved ones who will not return. 

“I want to say as loudly and clearly as I can: it is okay to ask for help. If you or a loved one is in need: ask. Your whole city stands in support of you ready to answer the call.”

If you or someone you know is in need of support, please reach out:

NYPD Employee Assistance Unit 646-610-6730 
NYPD Chaplains Unit 212-473-2363 
POPPA (Police Organization Providing Peer Assistance) 888-267-7267 
NYPD Crisis Text Line Text BLUE to 741741

Additionally, this year, the NYPD is launching a peer counseling program in every precinct.
