Community Action Program For Children

Beendigen provides programing that specifically promotes the healthy development and well-being of children who are facing challenges that put their health at risk. 

Children experiencing abuse, whether it is directly or indirectly, can become withdrawn, violent, and lose confidence in themselves. The negative effects on children of witnessing or overhearing violence are similar to the symptoms experienced by children who have been abused. These can include behavioural, physical, and psychological effects.

There are a number of different services and programs available to prevent children from becoming “at risk”. Beendigen provides early childhood interventions that promote a pathway for healthier child development and provide information on children’s nutrition and well-being.
