My name is Adam A. Meyers and I have been a Police Officer in Wisconsin for 20 years. In April 2016, I was on duty when I used deadly force against someone who had armed themselves with a hatchet in a busy Department store in Chippewa County, Wisconsin. Please contact me if you would like me to speak about my experience.

​I have faced many personal and professional mental health challenges after my shooting and it has taken me about five years to get back on track. I would not be a police officer today without the unwavering support of my Family, Friends, Colleagues, complete Strangers, and Counselors.

​In December 2020 I established Stop The threat - Stop The Stigma to serve as a platform to promote Law Enforcement Wellness. My overall goal for establishing Stop The Threat - Stop The Stigma is to speak about my experience and to inspire other Law Enforcement Professionals to speak about their own mental health challenges.
