Child Abuse Prevention Program (CAPP)

JFS’ trained specialists partner with more than 150 schools across St. Louis to teach children, teachers and parents about body safety, the warning signs of child abuse and safe internet skills, using developmentally-appropriate and empowering activities. Though the primary goal of the CAPP program is prevention, presentations also teach children who have seen or experienced abuse the importance of reporting the incident to a trusted adult, leading to treatment and healing.
