THE DREAM

The first dream, to put books into the hands of Racine's children, has come true. Over 250,000 books have been distributed, but Cops-n-Kids is just at the beginning of a greater vision. Julia Witherspoon has traveled extensively to help open over 40 Cops-n-Kids programs throughout the U.S. and she hopes to reach many more communities. We also dream of opening several more satellite Reading Centers in Racine to foster hope, safety and pride for those who live in disadvantaged neighborhoods. When a safe haven filled with books is around the corner or across the street, the possibilities are boundless. Working together Cops and kids, as well as other community members with energy to share, can reclaim the future: A future full of reading, writing, successes in school, confidence, self-respect, creativity, potential and the ability to make their own dreams come true.
