If the above list does not provide what you are looking for, let us know. We will be happy to design a program to meet your needs or help direct you to other resources. To schedule a program, call CAPS at 732-932-7884 and tell the secretary what you are looking for. A CAPS staff member will call you back to work out details and scheduling.

Please give us at least two weeks (more if possible) to schedule a program. However, if a situation arises in your building or within your group that requires immediate attention, we will do our best to accommodate your needs (see "Help in Coping...").
