Prevention Education & Training

The Amador Child Abuse Prevention Council (ACAPC) provides free workshops and training in our community in order to bring awareness of the issues surrounding child abuse and neglect to the public and provide information on how to prevent child abuse and neglect.

Currently we offer the following workshops:

• The Asset Approach to Positive Youth Development
• Stranger Awareness Workshop
• Mandated Child Abuse & Neglect Reporter Training
• Shaken Baby Syndrome Prevention
• The Period of PURPLE Crying® Program
• Keeping Safely Connected - Online Safety and Cyber Bullying

Collaboration

ACAPC works closely with many county agencies, community organizations, and concerned community members who provide services to children and families in Amador County and is a member of the Children & Families Program Committee and Domestic Violence Council.

Sierra-Sacramento Regional CAPC Coalition

• ACAPC is also part of a regional coalition of child abuse prevention councils (also known as CAPC's, pronounced "cap sees") from 14 counties who meet nine times per year for training, networking, and advocacy on behalf of children and families.
