Community Based Child Abuse
Prevention Program

Our Purpose
Improving parent-child interactions and healthy child development in addition to increasing parents and primary/secondary caregivers’ knowledge of and ability to meet children’s developmental needs.

About CBCAP Programs
Community-Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP) programs were established by Title II of the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act Amendments of 1996 and most recently reauthorized by the CAPTA Reauthorization Act of 2010 (P.L. 111-320).

The purpose of the CBCAP program is:

  1. to support community-based efforts to develop, operate, expand, enhance, and coordinate initiatives, programs, and activities to prevent child abuse and neglect and to support the coordination of resources and activities to better strengthen and support families to reduce the likelihood of child abuse and neglect; and
  2. to foster understanding, appreciation and knowledge of diverse populations in order to effectively prevent and treat child abuse and neglect.
