The Office of Child Abuse Prevention (OCAP) and Strategies TA, a partnership of the Children’s Bureau of Los Angeles and the Sacramento Child Abuse Center, provide technical assistance and support to county Prevention Planning Teams across the state. Together, the OCAP and Strategies TA inspire, build and strengthen cross-sector networks that are committed to the advancement of community-driven child abuse prevention that seeks to improve the overall health and well-being of children and families. The OCAP and Strategies TA are focused on working in partnership to build long-term statewide solutions in creating a seamless, sustainable, and impactful statewide child abuse prevention network that offers equitable access to resources and supports.

Strategies TA offers free training, consultation, peer learning, and other professional development opportunities. On March 29th from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., Strategies TA will be holding a Rural Counties Learning Exchange Conversation. This Learning Exchange will provide a facilitated forum for members of local child abuse Prevention planning teams to learn from, and share with each other, the challenges of working in a rural setting. With the support of Todd Sosna, Ph.D., Chief Program Officer for the Children's Institute, Inc., the first Learning Exchange Cohort meeting will focus on providing tools and strategies to capture child abuse prevention outcomes in a rural setting, as well as the importance of sharing your story with funders and the community.
