Program Descriptions
The CAP (Child Assault Prevention) project is a comprehensive primary prevention program. It provides three major programs to the schools and communities of the state of New Jersey. They are:
All CAP programs utilize a three-pronged approach to community prevention education: training of staff, parents and children. CAP 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. All people deserve to be Safe, Strong and Free.
Adult workshops precede the children's programming. They include staff in-service trainings and parent workshops. They cover the prevention and empowerment strategies given in the children's workshops and offer suggestions for the most effective ways to support those strategies at home, school and in the community.
