New Jersey Child Assault Prevention (NJ CAP)
The New Jersey Child Assault Prevention (NJCAP) is a training center which empowers communities of New Jersey to help keep their children safe from peer assault (bullying), abduction and known adult assault. Local community members are trained and certified by the state as facilitators in the CAP curricula and then they in turn provide this training to their local schools and community groups. All CAP programs utilize a three-pronged approach to prevention education: training staff, parents and children. CAP curricula strategies include self assertion, peer support, effective communication and reporting skills. CAP programs are presented with a view of assault as a violation of basic human rights, and a belief that all children have the right to be Safe, Strong and Free.
