She was recognized for her commitment to\u00a0improving the well-being of first responders\u00a0and their families through her service, research, education and clinical practice.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Though they\u0092re in high stress jobs, Jackson-Cherry said first responders are often reluctant to discuss mental health or seek treatment. It\u0092s a stigma she\u0092s worked to combat throughout her career.<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<br \/>\n\u0093Of the awards that I\u0092ve received, this is the one that means the most,\u0094 said Jackson-Cherry, chair of Marymount University\u0092s <a href=\"https:\/\/marymount.edu\/Academics\/School-of-Education-Human-Services\/Graduate-Programs\/Counseling-M-a\">Department of Counseling<\/a>. \u0093I\u0092ve always had a high respect for law enforcement.\u0094<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<br \/>\nGrowing up, she had close family members in both the military and law enforcement. Her husband is a police officer, her first master\u0092s degree was in criminal justice, and she worked in correctional settings and with law enforcement communities in various roles. During National Police Week she has counseled children who lost a parent in law enforcement. She has also worked as a mobile crisis director, a residential high school counselor and has provided training for those in law enforcement.<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0<br \/>\n\u0093Military deployment and law enforcement are very similar in the trauma they are exposed to while in their careers, except law enforcement deployments are daily, with careers that can last for 20 or 30 years,\u0094 she said, adding that many in the public don\u0092t realize the job\u0092s dangers.<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<br \/>\nPost traumatic stress, substance abuse, and suicide are common.<br \/>\n\u00a0 \u00a0<br \/>\n\u0093Of the 135 officers killed in the line of duty last year, 58 of the deaths were intentional killings,\u0094 she said. \u0093Each year, more than 48,000 law enforcement officers are victims of assault, resulting in various degrees of injuries.\u0094<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>Marymount University is an independent, coeducational Catholic university offering bachelor\u0092s, master\u0092s, and doctoral degrees in a wide range of disciplines.
