Your Community Impact

Healing Through Art at Our Therapeutic Children's Center

At our Carol’s House shelter, the Therapeutic Children’s Center offers a safe, nurturing space for youth healing from domestic violence. Pictured here are projects created by children as part of the program. Expressing emotions through art can help children begin to heal. Counseling and therapeutic activities specifically designed for children and teens promote age-appropriate childhood development and help to break the generational cycle of violence.

Making a Difference

In the News: Encampment Outreach

The San Diego Union-Tribune shares how CRC and partners are helping unsheltered neighbors at a North County encampment transition into safe homes. The article highlights what we know works: consistent, compassionate services that combine housing, individualized care and a focus on long-term stability.

Volunteer Spotlight: Beth Whitteker

Our June Volunteer of the Month, Beth, reflects on her experience: “I volunteer because I strongly value serving and connecting with my community. At Juneteenth, I met a woman who told me with tears in her eyes that CRC saved her life almost 20 years ago when she was scared and alone. That hug made my day!”
