Program:

Community Action for Prenatal and Child Health Program (CAPCHP)

Program Purpose:

As of 2026–27, the Community Action for Prenatal and Child Health Program (CAPCHP) combines two longstanding programs - the Community Action Program for Children (CAPC) and the Canada Prenatal Nutrition Program (CPNP), into a single program. The merge is part of a phased approach to renew the programs, affording greater efficiencies and administrative streamlining. Funding recipients in Québec will continue to be funded under the CAPC and CPNP until the end of 2027–28. The CAPCHP aims to strengthen public health capacity by mobilizing communities to promote the health and wellbeing of pregnant women and people, infants, young children (0-6) and their parents/caregivers by reducing barriers for equity deserving families and addressing community-specific needs.
