PUPPETS TELL
THE STORY

COPA offers many programs that help young people and adults create violence-free environments so that everyone can be safe, strong and free.

We focus on youth engagement and empowerment, and offer opportunities for youth to learn important information and life skills to address exclusion and abuse.

Our whole-school programming is designed for students of all ages, and includes training for parents and caregivers too, as well as school staff.
