Community Partnerships for Protecting Children
Home
Welcome!
The Community Partnerships for Protecting Children (CPPC) is an approach that strives to keep children safe from abuse and neglect and to support families. This approach recognizes that keeping children safe is everybody’s business, CPPC provides opportunities for community members to come together, help families in times of need and shape the services and supports provided.
Whether you are looking for resources for your family or opportunities to help kids in your community, we welcome the chance to connect you to what you’re looking for.
Protecting Children is Everyone’s Business!
Our hope is that every family is thriving. However, we all stumble across difficult times now and then – so we need each other to help get us back on our feet. Our communities offer many valuable resources. But knowing where to find them can be difficult. This website is designed to be your tool to locate local support and find links to the answers you are seeking.
