ALLIANCE FOR COMMUNITY ADAPTATION

ACDPN is a community organization and as such we pride ourselves on our ability to connect with members of the English-speaking Black community that we serve. In an effort to identify their priorities and to offer our support, a huge part of our work is focused on outreach. While we aim to empower them to access the public services and programs that they need, our main objective is to build a stronger and ever-growing community family.

How does ACA works?

An innovative model of community institutional
partnership & co-intervention to improve outcomes
for families in the English Speaking Black Community.

We offer our support and our cultural expertise to workers as they intervene with families with whom they may have a hard time connecting. In an effort to reduce the length of youth protection involvement and to redirect families to community resources when possible, the families are transferred to ACDPN and we make referrals to support services and programs that are offered within the community. In addition to diverting families out of the system and accelerating the closing of cases, there are many other benefits of this enhanced partnership.
