HELLO!
Happy Pride Month! We are excited to be spending this month celebrating our diverse and vibrant LGBTQ+ community. With continued legislation seeking to strip rights from the LGBTQ+ community, we take this time to reaffirm our commitment to equality and acceptance. We hope you join us in this commitment and celebration!
We have some fun things to share with you in this issue, including photos from Kids Day and some special ways to support Cope this month. We hope you enjoy these updates. Wishing you and your family a happy, healthy summer!
Gratefully,
Jessica

Fun in the Sun at Kids Day
Despite being postponed due to weather concerns, Kids Day was another hit this year! The sunny day was filled with lots of resources for parents from Cope and community agencies, and plenty of fun for kids, including coloring, bubbles, blocks, water activities, and raffle prizes. Kids could also stop by the Napa Fire Department booth for CPR tutorials and sit in the driver's seat of a Napa Police Department patrol car!
Simply Me Children's Portrait Sessions
We are excited to announce that Melissa Officer Photography has selected Cope as the beneficiary of her Simply Me campaign! Now through July 15th, Melissa is booking classic black-and-white portrait sessions for kids ages 3-16 for submission to a national art gallery showcase in the fall.
Funds raised from the portrait sessions will be donated to Cope in support of our family strengthening services.
