COPE is a specialized education course for parents in the process of separation, divorce, modification, and otherwise unmarried parents of minor children who come before the courts in need of educational tools and knowledge. KITM’s COPE class has been designed to assist parents in understanding the effects of family changes on their child(ren), as well as keep the child(ren) from being put “in the middle” of parental conflict. This class meets state and local requirements for a one-time, two-hour mandated class per Missouri Revised Statue 452.600.

The COPE program focuses on the physical, emotional, and legal impact of separation and divorce on parents and children.
