Children Assisted by Community Action Programs (CAP’s) – the various CAPS are satellites of the Westchester Community Opportunity Program (“WESTCOP”). The mission of the CAPS is to assist low income and at-risk populations with programs which foster self-sufficiency. CAP’s are staffed by the people living in the community it serves. CAPS promote the participation of residents of the community in planning and carrying out programs to help themselves.
