Organisation details
Description of activity
Capa First Response is support service for families and professionals – supporting those impacted by a child using harmful and/or aggressive behaviours towards a parent or caregiver. This is often referred to as ‘CAPVA’ Child or Adolescent to Parent Violence and Abuse.
An increasing number of families are struggling to find the right support. CAPA offer direct bespoke support to help identify the drivers behind the behaviour, help build strong communication, trusting relationships and clear boundaries and expectations.
Capa First Response Offers free advice and support sessions with specialist practitioners and 1:1 sessions to support the whole family (including siblings and extended family) as well as the child using the behaviours.
For professionals they offer free consultation sessions, training, supervision alongside team development and strategic thinking.
Capa was set up to fill the gap that families and professionals were telling us was a barrier to getting support. CAPA want to ensure that any family or professional dealing with this issue can get the right support regardless of location.
