SCCAP's Family and Asset Development Programs

These programs work with the family to design effective interventions or changes that can help the family build long-term stability. All programs except Weatherization include case management and ongoing support to assist the family in setting and meeting their goals.

Weatherization involves a comprehensive assessment of a home's energy usage efficiency and follows evidence-based protocols to improve energy usage for the family.

SCCAP's Education and Employment Programs

These programs support a family as they work to build their skills, obtain employment and then advance in their career. Whether an individual needs to develop soft skills or hard skills and education or a family needs the very tangible support of quality early learning programs for their children so they can work, SCCAP can assist them on their journey to a livable wage for their family.
