2024 Livingston County Shop With A Cop Program Now Accepting Referrals
Livingston County law enforcement agencies with the support of Walmart, Livingston County Department of Health and Human Services, Livingston Family Center, and The Well Church are planning the 20TH annual day to Shop with a Cop.
The Shop with a Cop event benefits children who might not receive presents for Christmas or who may need positive reinforcement with police officers. Each child is paired with a local police officer and paraded to Walmart with lights and sirens. At Walmart, they are given money to spend on anything on their Christmas wish list and have their picture taken with Santa.
The Shop with a Cop Committee is now accepting referrals for Livingston County children ages 5 to 14 years old who have been impacted by the legal, court, or child welfare systems.
Review and download the application below. Nominations are due by November 1, 2024.
There will be a committee meeting held in November to select the children and the parent/guardian will be notified by mail with specific instructions. Only the children selected will be able to participate. It is important if there are any address changes that we be notified as soon as possible.
If you have any further questions, contact Lacey Hinton at the Livingston County DHHS at 517-715-9775 or HintonL@michigan.gov or Angela Parth at 810-623-5892 or angelap@livfc.org.
The Shop with a Cop event will take place on December 7, 2024 at 8 a.m.
