C.O.P.S. Surviving to Thriving Conference

Loading Events

This conference is for survivors and co-workers of fallen officers and supporters of C.O.P.S. There will be no Kids Program or Daycare for children under the age of 15.

For four decades, the C.O.P.S. mission of “Rebuilding Shattered Lives” has brought a source of connection and support for survivors. By supporting our mission’s goals, we are proud to announce the inaugural Surviving to Thriving Conference. The weekend will mark a significant milestone as it will bring all survivorships together for the first time. We are planning a balanced mix of informative sessions and FUN activities for survivors to connect, share experiences, and find comfort in a supportive community. Whether you feel like you’re just surviving or thriving, this conference promises to be an uplifting and empowering event, fostering personal growth, resilience, and the unbreakable bonds of survivorship.

NOTE: this does not replace the FREE Hands-On Programs available to survivors. This is an additional opportunity for survivors to connect with their family, blood AND blue!
