The Peak Military Care Network has identified key service categories that address the breadth of needs for service members, veterans and their families. These categories are interconnected and overlap; providers may serve clients in more than one of the categories, and individuals and families may have needs that fall under more than one service category.

Peak Military Care Network: Project COPE Agency
PMCN is happy to announce that we are a Project COPE Agency! Project COPE, from Colorado Springs Utilities, provides utilities payment assistance to families and individuals struggling financially due to a personal crisis or emergency. Project COPE is the only local organization that dedicates its entire funding to utilities payment assistance year-round.
PMCN is dedicated to serving military, veterans and their families through Project COPE funds. We are the only agency that is military and veteran focused and is not zip code restricted. In January 2017, PMCN has already served two military families through Project COPE, totaling over $800 of assistance, preventing their utilities from being disconnected.
