Prevent Child Abuse and Neglect. We accomplish our mission by: Implementing evidence based practices and programs; Collaborating with multi-disciplinary partners; Providing training and technical assistance to build capacity, and advocating for policies to strengthen children, families and communities.

About Us
RISE VISTAs will provide to low-income parents and their children access to health services, economic supports, developmental and education skills through Community based Family Resource Centers (FRC’s). The result will be improved heath access, social emotional development, and literacy and numeracy skills that prepare children to succeed in school.
Our Impact
The CAP Center's VISTA strategy will focus on the evidence-based Two Generation approach to eliminating poverty. This approach consists of: 1) economic supports for all family members; 2) social capital for parents to promote resilience; and 3) developmental and educational opportunities for children and youth. This whole family approach, parents move to self-sufficiency, children overcome cognitive, physical, and social emotional damage, and poverty is eradicated not just for the family, but for future generations.
