Supporting Families and Communities...
Helping to Make Homes Safe for
Children
Secure and healthy families are the foundation of healthy and safe homes as well as strong communities. Exchange Clubs and Exchange Club Child Abuse Prevention (CAP) Centers across the country help build this foundation by
providing supportive services and educational programs. At the heart of our
efforts is the Exchange Parent Aide program, facilitated through Exchange
Club CAP Centers across the country. Parent Aides are trained and
professionally supervised individuals (either volunteer or
paraprofessional), who work in the homes of families to provide education
and support. Parent Aides are mentors for families. In addition to the
Parent Aide program, these centers also provide a variety of other
supportive services. Exchange Club members support this effort in a variety
of ways---from distributing educational information to volunteering to
raising funds for CAP programs.
The CAP Services Department of The National Exchange Club Foundation hopes
the information on our site will help families---and those who support and
encourage families---as they seek to understand and problem-solve the
various challenges that come with raising children.
