On behalf of the CAP Directors and Network I would like to welcome you to “Empowering Your Children to be Safe, Strong and Free.”
This NJCAP online session follows in-person workshops for staff and parents and guardians that recently took place in your child’s school.
The workshop has been tailored for parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and all those who care for children and have the most influence in their lives. As a mother of three boys, I know that CAP reduces children’s vulnerability to assault and bullying.
