Child Abuse Prevention Council of Contra Costa County
This website contains valuable information every family needs for support
and resources. As a parent, teacher, caregiver, or any role that includes the
care and responsibility of children, the programs and resources included at www.capc-coco.org will be of interest to you. Parenting is the most
difficult and most important work we do. Remember, if kids came with
instructions, parenting would be a lot easier. But they don’t.
Parents need supportive partners in their childrearing efforts.
The Child Abuse Prevention Council can be that important partner
for families, neighborhoods and all communities of Contra Costa
County. We welcome all who wish to join us in building healthy
families and protecting children. Our children’s poster project slogan says it all:
“It shouldn’t hurt to be a child”.
Wishing you peace,
Carol Carrillo, MSW
Executive Director
