Psychosocial intervention activites like the Cognitive ABC (Antecedent, Belief, Consequences) model is a good way to help at-risk youth process their emotions and behavior.

On June 2, 2022 CAC 2000 Foundation coordinated a visit for twelve participants to Moon Palace Resort where they received an educational session on the HVAC facility. This was followed by a visit to Konoko Falls for some team building and fun activities. It was a day well spent.

After a full 1 year in the St Catherine Collaborative Action Program, our youth and their parents spent their final day together in a bonding session at Devon House as the program came to an end last week.

“Man nuh dead, nuh call him duppy”—a Jamaican proverb meaning that with the right support, anyone can rise against the odds.
That’s the story of Omar, 33, whose life took a 180-degree turn for the better when he least expected it.

And They're Off!
Norwood and Grange Hill are off to a good start with approximately 100 youth participating in lively orientation sessions last week. The youth showed much interest in learning about all the offerings that will be available to them.
