| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
Yolo County Children's Alliance (YCCA) is the designated Child Abuse Prevention Council (CAPC) for Yolo County. CAPCs are community councils whose primary purpose is to coordinate the community’s efforts to prevent and respond to child abuse and neglect. Per the California Department of Social Services, each county shall fund Child Abuse Prevention coordinating councils that meet criteria under Welfare and Institutions Code (WIC) section 18982 from the county’s Children’s Trust Fund. The County receives Child Abuse Prevention, Intervention and Treatment (CAPIT) dollars that must be deposited into the Children’s Trust Fund (CTF) and spent by the CAPC.
Pursuant to this Agreement YCCA will:
- Coordinate the implementation of Community Cafés for parents by members of the Yolo Family Strengthening Network/Child Abuse Prevention (YFSN/CAP) Committee in order to prevent child abuse and neglect in Yolo County.
- Increase adoption of the Strengthening Families™ Framework by partner organizations and increase its use by family-serving providers.
- Help family-serving organizations strengthen families by providing Child Abuse Prevention Month materials that support Protective Factors.

| Program Information |
- The Child Abuse Prevention program conducts three primary activities:
- Convenes, coordinates, and supports CAPC meetings. Coordinates, plans, and supports CAPC Committees.
- Coordinates and plans YFSN meetings with Co-Chairs, maintains YFSN listserv, and continues to provide technical assistance to YFSN members to support their implementation of World Cafés for parents.
- Creates and disseminates Child Abuse Prevention Month materials that strengthen families to family-serving organizations during April - Child Abuse Prevention Month.
- One of the frameworks that YCCA uses in our child abuse prevention efforts is the Strengthening Families™ Framework. This is a research-informed approach to increase family strengths, enhance child development, and reduce child abuse and neglect. Created by the Center for the Study of Social Policy in 2003, it focuses on building 5 protective factors (i.e., parental resilience, social connections, knowledge of parenting and child development, concrete support in times of need, and social and emotional competence of children) to promote better outcomes for families.
- YCCA receives $45,000 from Yolo County for Child Abuse Prevention.
