ABOUT ESPACE AND CAP-ESPACE PROGRAM

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]The CAP-ESPACE program is unique in Quebec. It is one of the very few whose actions address both adults and preschool and elementary-level children. The program includes three inseparable workshops. These workshops are offered to the staff, then parents and other adults, and lastly to all the children in a school, daycare centre, recreational or sport group, or any other child-based environment.

The impact of the CAP-ESPACE workshops has been evaluated and the results of the research are conclusive. They have been the subject of various scientific publications in Quebec and elsewhere.

The CAP-ESPACE program is offered by the ESPACE organizations and is the method favored for doing prevention of ALL forms of violence affecting children. The program is offered to children ages 3 through 12, as well as the adults in their entourage (in schools, daycare centres, recreational or sports organizations, etc.).[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”35px”][/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item background_image=”233″ cover=”yes” item_padding=”26px 6% 0 15%” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding_1280_1440=”26px 5% 0 10%” item_padding_768_1024=”17px 2% 0 2%” item_padding_600_768=”40px 8% 0 8% ” item_padding_480_600=”40px 8% 0 8%” item_padding_480=”40px 8% 0 8%”][/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item background_color=”rgba(246,161,29,0.8)” item_padding=”0 0 0 0″ advanced_animations=”no” item_padding_600_768=”32% 0 32% 0″ item_padding_480_600=”45% 0 45% 0″ item_padding_480=”45% 0 45% 0″][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1531918584620{padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”]

Daycare
Kindergarten
Elementary Cycle 1
Elementary Cycle 2
Elementary Cycle 3

The workshop all use the same vocabulary with regard to the basic notions and strategies taught. However, they differ in the role-play situations presented, and offer more specific information for certain concepts according to the children’s level of cognitive development.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1531832709489{padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 15% !important;padding-bottom: 15% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”]

Subjects broached in the children’s workshop

Rights that everyone has and rules to be respected
Bullying between children
Assaukts commited by someone known or strangers
Aggressors’ tricks and strategies
Various aspects of violence
Problem solving
Effective prevention strategies
Local ressources

During the workshop a team of facilitators encourages the children’s active participation, enabling them to practice the prevention strategies discussed and ensure their comprehension.

By participating in the CAP-ESPACE workshop, the children come to develop an assertive attitude, leading to safer behaviours. What’s more, they learn concrete strategies for staying safe. Children are less vulnerable to violence if they can:

Identify their rights and those of others;
Assert themselves, say no to protect their rights or when they feel they are in danger;
Turn to friends for support;
Ask trusted adults for help;
Use self-defence when necessary

Individual meetings

After the workshop, the children have a free period and, on a voluntary basis, are invited to individually meet with one of the facilitators. This is a privileged time to answer any questions they might have, verify their comprehension of the subjects discussed during the workshop and, if necessary, offer them support or even refer them to the proper resource if they need help.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”center” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1518555466325{background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.5) !important;*background-color: rgb(255,255,255) !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][qode_elements_holder number_of_columns=”three_columns” three_columns_proportion=”50_25_25″ switch_to_one_column=”1000″][qode_elements_holder_item background_color=”#f4f4f4″ item_padding=”12% 15% 12% 15%” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding_1024_1280=”76px 11% 11% 11%” item_padding_600_768=”102px 9% 14% 8%” item_padding_480_600=”46px 8% 14% 8%” item_padding_480=”46px 8% 14% 8%”][vc_column_text]

MISSION, VISION ET VALUES

Our vision

Our vision : A Quebec where preventing of all forms of violence against children is a collective priority.

Where the whole community rallies behind ESPACE, that it sees, hears and talks about violence against children. That it feels responsible of the present and future safety and well being of all children, it’s children.

Where children have safer living environments. That always more abusers are reported.

Where together we make sure that always less and less children fall victims to violence and have to suffer it’s consequences

Mission

That always more children are able to have a safe childhood, free from violence.

At ESPACE, every action tends to offer children the chance to have a safe childhood, free from violence. It is our purpose, our daily commitment.

Preventing violence is not only giving children the tools they need to protect themselves against all forms of violence but also, and greatly, to raise awareness with adults on what their role is in prevention and equip them in helping children.

Favorite way : CAP-ESPACE program.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1518692160282{background-color: #eaeaea !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1531832526562{padding-top: 15% !important;padding-right: 15% !important;padding-bottom: 15% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”]

Values

Feminism : The feminist movement aims on the recognition and respect of women’s rights and, at a larger scale, tends towards equality of every person’s rights in the respect of differences. The subsequent approach seeks to develop empowerment among people by giving them the tools they need to assert themselves in all aspects of their life. For ESPACE, it is possible to develop empowerment in the children and their surrounding communities. Feminist analysis also establishes links between abuses committed are acts of domination, oppression enforced by a person that is in a position of power, authority towards person.

The commitment to the values of independent community action is as important: the promotion of individual and collective self-reliance, a democratic functioning and the militant commitment with a view to bring about social change.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” anchor=”expertise” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” el_id=”principes” z_index=””][vc_column][qode_elements_holder number_of_columns=”three_columns” three_columns_proportion=”50_25_25″ switch_to_one_column=”1000″][qode_elements_holder_item background_color=”#e5e5e5″ item_padding=”12% 15% 12% 15%” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding_1024_1280=”76px 11% 11% 11%” item_padding_600_768=”102px 9% 14% 8%” item_padding_480_600=”46px 8% 14% 8%” item_padding_480=”46px 8% 14% 8%”][vc_column_text]

Principles that underlie the action of ESPACE

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”26px”][vc_column_text]

Children are persons in their own rights, that are not only the society’s future, but also its present;
Children have the right to feel safe, strong and free;
Children have the right to have their integrity respected, no matter their age, gender, race, ethnic origin, religion, etc., as enacted in the Convention on the Rights of the Child of 1989;
In general, children have the potential to resolve their difficulties;
The children’s protection is first and foremost the responsibility of their parents, but also these of all the adults of their community;
Adults have the responsibility to believe children, to take seriously their cries for help, and to accompany and support them in their initiative to solve their problems;
The abuser has the sole responsibility of the acts of violence he or she commits;
The preventive action needs to aim towards developing empowerment in children, adults and their living environments;

We teach them to recognize violence, how to recognize a potential aggressor and what strategies to apply. By promoting equality in all relationships by encouraging self-respect and respect for others, our approach enables children to acquire strategies that will be useful throughout their lives.

The impact of the ESPACE workshops has been evaluated and the results of the research are conclusive. They have also been the subject of several scientific publications in Quebec and elsewhere.

You would to established an ESPACE organization certified by the ROEQ?

Step 1: Communicate with the ROEQ

Consequently the coordinating team will be able to tell you if an organization already exists in your region or if they are presently implementing an organization.

The ROEQ supports and guides any new organization every step of the way and is also responsible to ensure the training of the team according to the certification process in effect at the ROEQ.

Step 2: The concertation

Assembling a group if adults that wants to implicate themselves to set up a resource dedicated to prevention.

Step 3: Rooted into the community

Get the support of the different actors in the community (other community organizations, Youth Center, CLSC ou CISSS, schools, daycares, etc.)

Step 4: Implementation

Find the necessary funding to ensure a minimum of permanent personnel. Start the incorporation procedures of a non-profit organization. Build the future team of facilitators and start the ESPACE training. Reach out to the general population so that your organization becomes known to them and raise awareness in the community about the issue of violence against children in order to get them involved and mobilised.

Funding

Because the ROEQ does not have sufficient funding, it cannot financially support the implementation of a new organization. The organization itself needs to obtain the necessary financial support through diverse resources within its region.

The main sources of funding can be: Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux (programme de soutien aux organismes communautaires ), Centraide, Service Clubs, Foundations, Religious Orders, Fund-raising activities ans events, etc.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
