Since 1986, The Child Abuse Prevention Program has reached over 280,000 New York City school children and made them aware of their right to be safe.
our mission
The Child Abuse Prevention Program's mission is to ensure that all children receive their basic right to safety so that they can have the opportunity to grow and thrive. At CAPP, we believe that all children deserve the chance to have healthy and happy lives.

Our goal is to educate young children about their right to be safe. By doing so, CAPP sets a foundation for prevention; and if abuse is present, allows children to be heard. These children are assured that there is not something "particular" about them that caused the abuse to occur. CAPP actively combats the misconception that abuse will go away if we pretend it does not exist.
