Child Abuse Prevention Councils

Child Abuse Prevention Councils (CAPCs) are the catalyst, convener and coordinator of the countywide approach to prevention of child maltreatment. Each CAPC prioritizes strategies for action, and builds foundational capacity to move the state and local prevention agenda forward. The Office of Child Abuse Prevention (OCAP) provides these definitions and guidance to support CAPCs in their leadership role, partnering within counties and communities to promote child and family health and well – being.

Lessons In Disaster Recovery

In 2017, in a scenario that has become all too familiar, a devastating fire burned across northern Napa Valley. Among the community members and organizations responding to the disaster and its aftermath were the Family Resource Centers and Strategies 2.0 partners, On the Move and Upvalley Family Centers.

While supporting families during the crisis, they also had the forethought to document their efforts and lessons learned, to support other nonprofits, around California and beyond, in thinking through their own preparedness for future disasters.

Strategies 2.0 Building Community Resilience Toolkit

Based upon the framework for addressing Adverse Childhood and Community Experiences: The Building Community Resilience Model by Wendy Ellis and William Dietz (2017), Strategies 2.0's Building Community Resilience Toolkit Series is designed to guide family and community strengthening organizations in the necessary balance between ideas grounded in research and data with the community’s own lived experience and perceptions of adversity and assets.
