Working Together to Keep Every Child Safe from Harm.

Welcome to Child Abuse Prevention Services (CAPS), Long Island's leading non-profit dedicated to the prevention of bullying, child abuse and neglect, and the promotion of Internet safety.

CAPS is the only organization utilizing volunteers to work directly with children and youth in New York's Nassau and Suffolk elementary, middle and high schools, providing prevention through education programs at no cost to the schools or students.

Since our inception, CAPS has reached hundreds of thousands of Long Island students, parents, educators, professionals and concerned community groups through education and awareness programs.

Thousands more call upon CAPS as an expert resource on bullying and cyber-bullying, child abuse prevention, Internet safety, relational aggression, and sexual harassment and date rape prevention.

Our CAPS Helpline receives hundreds of emails and calls each year from children, parents, grandparents and educators looking for advice about bullying and abuse.

As bullying, child abuse and neglect continue to take a toll on our youth and impact society, those who are called to action become CAPS volunteers and join us in pursuit of our mission: working together to keep every child safe from harm.
