CAPC Overview



Without these groups, I'd still be behind locked doors and my daughter would still be sitting watching TV instead of playing with kids. If it hadn't been for these sessions, if it hadn't been for the Resource Centre, a lot of us women would still be behind locked doors and closed curtains."  - CAPC parent
The  Community Action Program for Children (CAPC)  is an ECD program with service providers that aim to improve healthy development of children age 0-6 living in conditions of risk.

Conditions of risk include :
  • low socioeconomic status
  •  social isolation
  • teen pregnancy
  • situations of violence or neglect
  • substance use and addictions
  • children experiencing developmental delays or social, emotional, and behavioural problems

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.

Examples of CAPC programming include:
  • Parenting programs
  • One-on-One Support
  • Home Visits
  • Drop-In Health programs
  • Community kitchens
  • Information Sessions
  • Preschool Programs
  • Referrals to agencies and services
"It's good to know there's someone, someplace that will support me in being a good parent and make sure I know what I should. They've made it easier and I don't feel so stressed or alone."
