In 1994, the Police Officers Legislative Committee, formerly known as the Michigan Police Legislative Committee, created the Coalition of Public Safety Employees Health Trust, effectively to provide a mechanism for Michigan public safety first responder employees to obtain healthcare benefit insurance apart from their employers’ regular health care programs. By creating COPS Trust, several Michigan public safety first responder unions, including Detroit Police Officers Association and Michigan State Police Troopers Association, were able to provide healthcare benefit insurance coverage at lower costs with improved members healthcare experience.

With unending rising health care costs in sight, COPS Trust is more valuable than ever. It is our goal to continue to provide quality healthcare insurance benefits.
