CBCAP – Project CARE

Community Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP) is a federally funded program designed to strengthen families with young children by providing coordinated wrap-around family-centered services and support that promotes the safety and well-being of children and reduces parent stress.  A community network coordinator works with the larger provider community network in building capacity, organizing and delivering services to families in an integrated, strength-based and comprehensive way.  Each eligible family works with a lead agency and the overall provider network to develop and implement a family roadmap for achieving their stated goal(s).  The comprehensive system of care includes family assessment of resources and needs, linkage to a medical home and necessary wrap-around (flexible) services.  This project serves families in Jasper and Newton counties.
