Community Action Plan

            for Children (CAP-C)

           The  Community  Action  Plan  for
           Children  (CAP-C)  is  an  open  access
           program  that  provides  a  supportive
           learning environment and community
           support  to  parents,  grandparents,
           caregivers and their children aged 0-6
           years old.
                             CAPC    staff   and
                             volunteers  provide
                             services   to   the
                             Asian  community
                             in Richmond, supporting those parents and
                             children whose first language is not English.
                             Over  the  last  22  years  the  CAPC  program
                             continues  to  run  family  support  groups
                             promoting  the  health  of  young  children,
                                     enhancing  parent/child  interaction
                                     and    building    awareness    of
                                     community  resources.      Many  of
                                     these  families  are  new  to  Canada
                                     and benefit from the connection to
                                     needed resources.
                                     The  Community  Action  Plan  for
                                     Children  is  funded  by  the  Federal
                                     Government of Canada.
