C.O.P.S. stands for Communities Organized for Public Service

For 50 years, COPS/Metro Alliance has given ordinary people a powerful voice in the decisions that affect their communities. We are a nonpartisan organization of dues-paying member institutions working to improve life for families in the San Antonio region. Our members have included religious congregations, schools, civic associations, labor and professional organizations, and non-profits.

We are a university of public life where people become leaders, developing the courage and skills to accomplish more than they ever thought possible.
