What is Kids N’ Cops:
- Since 1991, Kids N’ Cops has united the Eau Claire County Sheriff’s Office and other area Law
Enforcement Officers with at risk youth between the ages of 4-11. - Donations and fundraisers allow the program to create a special experience for these young people. Referrals are received from schools, social service agencies and churches. Officers take the children
shopping at Target for essential winter clothing and school items and also let them choose a special toy! - Kids N’ Cops enables officers, family members and friends to share a little holiday cheer while
providing a positive interaction with law enforcement that lasts a lifetime. - After the shopping event, one on one time is spent between law enforcement and the child while eating snacks.
