Community Services
BARCC’s Community Awareness and Prevention Services (CAPS) program presents educational programs and works with communities to increase understanding of the realities of sexual assault and rape. We raise public awareness and work with communities to prevent sexual violence.
CAPS staff and volunteers conduct over 200 educational programs and informational tablings each year. Additionally, CAPS volunteers develop outreach and education plans for their communities based on either geography (their town, for example) or interest (youth involved in music).
The CAPS staff have particular expertise in working with youth and adults who work with them; immigrant communities particularly the Boston Haitian community; college students, faculty and staff; and professional staff such as police, health care providers, and social service agencies.

current workshops and trainings. Then complete a Request for Speaker form if you are interested in one of these offerings.
CAPS can work with you to develop a custom workshop, training, seminar, or presentation on any topic relating to sexual violence. Contact us to discuss your needs.
