Happy National Mentor Day!

CAPS professional staff make a meaningful difference in the lives of families every day. Through compassion, guidance, and encouragement, they empower parents and children to recognize their strengths, overcome challenges, and discover solutions to everyday struggles. From conducting strengths and needs assessments and developing safety plans to connecting families with community resources, supporting budgeting, promoting child and teen well-being, and providing emotional support, they help families build confidence, resilience, and essential life skills.

Their dedication goes beyond providing support, they inspire hope, encourage growth, and empower families to create brighter futures. Today, we celebrate and recognize our CAPS professionals for being mentors, advocates, and champions for the families they serve. Our CAPS Family Mentors work tirelessly each day to fulfill the mission of CAPS which is to improve children’s lives and strengthen families!

Thank you for making a lasting difference, one family at a time!

We are Bullying Prevention! We are CAPS!

🌟💛 You can help build a kinder community!

Preventing bullying isn't just the responsibility of schools. Parents, caregivers, mentors, and community members all have a role in helping children feel safe, respected, and included.

Here's how you can support CAPS' Bullying Prevention Program:

💛 Bring the conversation home.
Talk with your children about kindness, empathy, and what they can do if they see someone being bullied.

💛 Support CAPS.
Your donations help CAPS continue offering education and prevention programs that strengthen children and families.

💛 Model kindness.
Children learn from the adults around them. The way we treat others helps shape how they treat their peers.

Together, we can help children understand that they have the power to make their schools a kinder place.

We are Bullying Prevention! We are CAPS!

💛 What is Bullying Prevention?

Bullying can affect a child's confidence, friendships, and sense of belonging. But what if we could help children learn how to stop bullying before it becomes a pattern?

Our CAPS Bullying Prevention Program provides classroom instruction for elementary and middle school students to help reduce bullying and peer abuse.

Through lessons focused on empathy, conflict resolution, and understanding the role of bystanders, students learn that they have the power to make a difference.

Our program encourages students to:

✔ Recognize how their words and actions affect others
✔ Practice listening, empathy, and conflict resolution
✔ Help classmates who are being targeted
✔ Choose kindness and build others up

At CAPS, we believe bullying doesn't have to be an inevitable part of growing up. By teaching children how to support one another, we can help create safer, kinder schools.
