The Council of African American Parents is a non-profit parent and community driven organization committed to providing ways to enhance the educational opportunities of students through academics, social activities, and cultural awareness. CAAP provides support to the students and families of: Chino Hills, Diamond Bar, Pomona, Walnut, and surrounding communities.
Educating our children - tomorrow's leaders - remains at the forefront of CAAP's organizational agenda.
It is our goal to empower and equip parents with tools and resources that will help maximize their child's learning potential and increase their academic performance. The single most important thing that we as parents and community members can do for our children is to ensure that they:
(1) will be prepared to competitively compete for seats at selective colleges and universities;
(2) will become productive and responsible leaders, and
(3) will make positive contributions to our families, communities and society at large. We encourage you to become a part of CAAP's endeavor to develop our children into the great leaders they are destined to become.
We invite you to attend our meetings held at 7:00 p.m., on the second Wednesday of each month from August 2009 – June 2010, located at the Walnut Valley Unified District Educational Center located at 880 South Lemon Street in the city of Walnut, California.
