Who are we
We are an action-oriented group that works collectively to address community-wide gaps, garner community support, and expand the capacity of member organizations to better serve the needs of the community.
CARES is composed of agencies concerned with the development and/or coordination of ensuring youth and adults have access to shelter, food, healthcare, mental health assistance, affordable housing, substance use treatment, and other basic needs and opportunities. Community partners are also a vital part of the coalition
