Stop Now and Plan (SNAP) at CCYS

Stop Now And Plan (SNAP®) is an evidence-based behavioral program offered by Capital City Youth Services (CCYS) to help children build emotional regulation, self-control, problem-solving, and positive decision-making skills. The program also helps parents and caregivers learn strategies for supporting positive behavior at home.

SNAP serves children ages 6-11 and is offered through 13-week programming. SNAP in Schools brings the curriculum into elementary classrooms, covering topics such as managing anger, handling peer pressure, dealing with bullying, and making better choices. CCYS also provides SNAP group programming for children and their parents.

SNAP services are free. Participation and referral procedures vary depending on the program. Families interested in SNAP can contact CCYS for current group availability, and SNAP in Schools referrals are coordinated through participating schools.
