About HPD's Shop with a Cop program

or the past several years, the Hazard Police Department's Shop with a Cop program has operated on an annual budget of approximately $3,000, allowing officers to provide Christmas gifts for about 20 local children each year. The goal this year is to expand the program and serve even more children in the Hazard Independent School District. Beyond providing gifts, Shop with a Cop helps build positive relationships between local law enforcement and the children they serve by creating positive, lasting memories.
