Grant Description

The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement is to establish by cooperative agreement a National Resource Center for the Community-Based Child Abuse Prevention Program (NRCCBCAP). NRCCBCAP will serve as a member of the Children's Bureau's (CB's) Training and Technical Assistance Network (T/TA Network). This network is designed to improve child welfare systems and to support States and Tribes in achieving sustainable, systemic change that results in greater safety, permanency, and well-being for children, youth, and families. The NRCCBCAP will be the primary provider of T/TA to build the capacity of Community-Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP) lead agencies and their partners. The key focus is on building the capacity to effectively implement the requirements of the program and support evidence-informed and evidence-based child maltreatment prevention programs and activities. It will facilitate lead agency efforts in the planning and development of a network of interdisciplinary community-based programs and activities designed to strengthen and support families to prevent child abuse and neglect. It will also promote stronger linkages with the child welfare and other child and family systems.
