Overview

Picture
As Community Action Program for Children - CAPC - service providers, our purpose is to address health and developmental needs of children - birth to 6 years old - and their families living in conditions of risk.

Conditions of risk include:
  • ​​- children living in low-income families
  • - children living in teenage-parent families
  • - children experiencing developmental delays, social, emotional, or behavioural problems; and abused and neglected children

Special consideration is given to Metis, Inuit and off-reserve First Nations children, the children of recent immigrants and refugees, children in lone-parent families and children who live in remote and isolated communities.



Making a Difference

CAPC Projects offer parents information and support to help them with healthy development of their children.

Programs include established models, such as family resource centres, parenting classes, parent-child groups, home visiting.  Also included are innovative programs such as street-level programs for substance abusing mothers
