CAP is the only 501 (c) 3 Non-Profit Charity devoted specifically to children with alopecia local, regionally, nationally and internationally. Alopecia is an autoimmune disease that is not life threatening, but is life altering. It is not contagious. You can't catch it and it does not hurt. It is almost like your body is allergic to hair, which causes it to fall out. We want to build self-esteem, provide support and raise awareness. It's that simple! www.Facebook.com/ChildrensAlopeciaProject
