You know that raising a child is not easy and so do we. Because our parents may have been verbally or physically abusive, does not mean that we have to be. Abuse hurts everyone and can leave lasting scars on the abused and the abuser. When abuse happens frequently, children begin to see abuse as normal often choosing to hurt classmates, friends, and loved ones later in their own lives. Parents who abuse feel great frustration and shame. This can make the parent afraid to seek support for fear of punishment.

The CAP Center exists to break the cycle of abuse, eliminate shame, and create bonds between parents, children, and a loving community.
