#BecauseKidsMatter
The mission of C.A.R.E is to promote the social, emotional, and moral development of each youth by providing support, and resources to them and their families, through mutual respect, open communication, and opportunities for active participation. We focus our efforts on advocacy, prevention, intervention and community outreach.
Our vision is to help youth in the surrounding Atlanta Metropolitan areas to receive tangible support they need to improve their quality of life.
Our object is to increase the self-worth of our youth by providing them with social, educational and emotional foundation that will enable them to be of value to themselves and the community.
"We firmly believe that to give a community a positive future, the youth need to be educated today. To teach personal development and life skills."
