This webinar was hosted by the FRIENDS National Resource Center and staff from the Strengthening Families Initiative to explore how Community Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP) programs can provide services that build and increase protective factors. The primary focus of this webinar was on how CBCAP leads are using a protective factors framework to shape their prevention program strategies.
