Programs In Need
KidCOPP Program KidCOPP is the program where we place the Children's Bill of Rights poster in our public
schools, churches, day care centers, Attorney's Offices, etc. The intent of the program is to post the Children's
Rights where anyone can view them with the hope that these rights will be honored by anyone in charge of caring for or are
responsible for children. Funds required for the posters
and frames; $30.00EA
First Responders Program FRP is the program
where COPP provides our "first responders", usually the Police with written information that can be given to parents
that feud either in the presence of children or are in a dispute over the children. This data provides detailed information
to the harmful effects of getting "caught in the middle" and where the parents can find resources to help prevent
thier children from suffering emotionally. Funds
required for the paper and printing; $.70EA, Stuffed animal
for each child; $10.00EA
COPP Bus Program Our Bus program is in the developmental phase. Once we get the bus interior converted with a classroom/meeting
room, we intend to use it to hold Support Group Meetings and also to hold Workshops using "Children-in-the-Middle"
course material. Of course the bus will be used as a mobile billboard in order to advertise our organization.
Funds required for the bus include the following; Fuel
$4.00gal Maintenance/Insurance $65.00monthly
Interior Modifications $9,500.00, (seating, table, monitors, carpeting, climate control, generator, etc.)
Family Law Improvement Program
COPP intends to build a
large enough national coalition of Protective Parents that will be large enough for our elected officials to pay attention
to, once we take our recommendations for Family Law reform to them. COPP believes that kids deserve equal time with both deserving
parents and that this should a "kids right" from the very beginning of their life. Divorce should not be a tool
that takes this right away. Funds required for the
FLI program include research and development for each state, advertisements for COPP membership, travel to and from various
law makers, etc; (Difficult to predict)
Children's Rights Day Program
Since the United States
celebrates "Mothers Day" and "Fathers Day", shouldn't we also celebrate "Childrens Day"?
COPP has a goal to make this happen. We are currently working with local officials and will hopefully expand to a state and
finally a national level to make this happen. Funds are
needed to pay for renting space, paying for childrens activities, music, food, etc, required for each location, approximately
$2500.00 per event.
