CCA Support Services
As an online public school, we believe in creating meaningful connections that span the digital divide. Whether you’re new to the CCA family or an experienced CCA parent, we provide many valuable resources to support families and encourage them to participate in student success. Take advantage of the following offerings:
Family Services
CCA is dedicated to streamlining every family’s transition to the virtual schooling environment. Our family services department includes:
- Family mentors: We assign experienced CCA parents to new families who enroll in our program.
- Family Service Centers: CCA has over a dozen Family Service Centers across the state, each serving as a resource for nearby families. Our teachers conduct their virtual classes from these venues, and families can pop in for in-person help. They host field trips, events, and information sessions for potential families.
- Family Involvement Coordinator (FIC): The FIC oversees mentors from several regions to ensure all parents receive the necessary information.
We also provide orientation and other family training opportunities as we encourage families to embrace the CCA community and education.
Family Mentors
As family mentors have been through the transition to online education, they know what questions you’ll likely have as you navigate the change. They share their time to assist new families in the following ways:
- Schedule in-person meetings by request for more detailed support.
- Host get-togethers to bring newly enrolled families together.
- Maintain family mentor Facebook groups to provide new families with updated information and support.
- Provide weekly virtual support sessions.

Family Involvement Coordinators
Family Involvement Coordinators exist to guide our mentors through their role. They help mentors across several PA regions. They host support sessions, orientations, and ongoing training throughout the school year. The Family Services department also coordinates and hosts hundreds of yearly field trips and school events.
Military Family Resources
CCA understands and accommodates the unique needs of military students and families, including social, emotional, and educational support. If your child is one of the 1.2 million students with a parent or caretaker deployed for active duty, our career planning, flexibility, and personalized learning are invaluable resources. Some of the many resources for military families include:
- SchoolQuest to help military families change schools.
- Military OneSource connects military families with numerous helpful resources.
