CAPPA (Community and Participatory Action for Public Policy)

CAPPA, or Community and Participatory Action for Public Policy, is an approach that encourages communities to actively engage in the decision-making processes that affect their lives. It focuses on collaboration among community members, policymakers, and organizations to identify issues, gather insights, and develop solutions together. By promoting participation, CAPPA aims to create more equitable and effective public policies that reflect the needs and voices of the community, ensuring that their perspectives are considered in governance and service delivery. This method empowers individuals to influence policies and drive positive change in their neighborhoods.
