Resources
Below are some resources specifically designed to support our COPE Family of Instructors and Parents.
VERY IMPORTANT: To achieve the same positive results as shown in the program studies, to ensure the participant has all program content easily available throughout the delivery, and to provide a reference manual they can keep to help refresh concepts/skills in the future, each student must be provided with a separate hard-copy of the student manual/workbook.

Instructors Networking Group
In response to a number of requests from current instructors seeking to communicate with other current instructors on real-world program delivery and implementation issues/experiences, and to provide a resource for new program instructors seeking program-delivery advice from experienced instructors, we have set up an Instructor’s Networking Group.
You must be a currently licensed manual-based program instructor to join the group.
To receive an email invitation to join our Instructors Networking Group, please fill out the form below. Registered members of the group can log in below.
Below are links for student Certificates of Achievement that you can print and customize to acknowledge their accomplishment!
Each is sized (11 inches x 17 inches) to easily fit on the walls and bulletin boards of primary care practices, community centers, and schools. Posters are provided at no cost to COPE-trained instructors (maximum of six posters per location). Not available outside the U.S.


Our program brochures are now available in a digital pdf format that’s easy to distribute as an email attachment and can be printed from your color printer for hard copy distribution.
