CAPT/Our House is hosting a diaper drive to support local children and families in need. Diapers and wipes are basic necessities, but many families struggle to keep up with the ongoing cost. A lack of these essential items can create stress and hardship for parents and caregivers who are already facing difficult circumstances.

Donations can be dropped off Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM at 203 E. Main St., Wilkesboro 28697. Thank you for your support!

April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness and promoting the safety and well-being of children.

The mission of the Child Abuse Prevention Team is to prevent child abuse and neglect whenever and wherever possible. CAPT works toward this goal by ensuring families have access to basic necessities and connecting them with essential resources they need to thrive. By providing or connecting families with these resources, CAPT helps create safer, more stable home environments, which significantly lower the risk of abuse and neglect.
