Our Goal
The Child Advocacy Programs goal is to end child abuse in Chautauqua County. The Stewards of Children Workshop raises awareness of the prevalence and consequences of child sexual abuse by educating adults about the steps they can take to prevent, recognize and react responsibly to the reality of child sexual abuse. CAP's Stewards of Children program is the only nationally available program proven to increase knowledge, improve attitudes and change child protective behaviors. This revolutionary program is for any responsible adult who cares about the welfare of children. It is also appropriate for youth‐serving organizations (sports leagues, day care centers, after school programs, children’s clubs, church groups and more). Stewards of Children is taught in group sessions by Jana McDermott an Authorized Facilitator who has been trained by Darkness to Light.
