The CAP Program
The Client Assistance Program (CAP) was established as a mandatory program by the 1984 Amendments to the Rehabilitation (Rehab) Act. Every state and territory, as a condition for receiving allotments under Section 110 of the Rehab Act, must have a CAP. CAP services include assistance in pursuing administrative, legal and other appropriate remedies to ensure the protection of persons receiving or seeking services under the Rehab Act. The Rehabilitation Services Administration also administers CAP.
