body
BACKGROUND
Child Abuse Prevention Councils are local bodies which organize community resources in order to reduce child abuse and neglect in every county in California. These councils are either an independent part of a county government or a non-profit organization.
The Child Abuse Prevention Council of Napa County (CAPC) collaborates and advocates for public policy that impacts children’s safety and healthy development. CAPC raises awareness and engages the community in child abuse prevention efforts. CAPC is led by Cope Family Center and is comprised of many other nonprofits, government agencies, faith-based organizations, and more. Cope is the umbrella agency that houses CAPC, thereby giving CAPC full non-profit status. CAPC is funded by the Children’s Trust Fund pursuant to Chapter 11, Article 5 (Sections 18965-18971) of the Welfare and Institutions Code (WIC).
Services provided by Cope under this agreement include creating a unified voice for child abuse prevention in Napa County; promoting collaboration and coordination of the myriad of resource agencies that work in child abuse prevention; and supporting projects that have a direct positive effect on child abuse prevention. The prior agreement is being terminated and replaced at this time to update contract language and increase the contract maximum by $5,000 for a new maximum of $45,000.
Cope Family Center is a local vendor.
