CARE House

11/04/2025

At CARE House, we walk alongside children and their families during their most challenging times. When families come to us after their child has experienced abuse, neglect, or other traumatic events their focus is understandably on their child's healing and justice. They often face emotional and financial strain and simply getting to our center or putting food on the table can become an added burden during an already overwhelming period.
We're reaching out to our community for a way to ease some of these practical challenges. We are collecting gift cards to Kroger, Meijer, and Wal-Mart, as well as gas cards for the families who visit us. These cards offer more than just a purchase; they provide crucial support for groceries, daily essentials, and the vital transportation needed to attend appointments and access resources. They represent a small but significant gesture of care, allowing families to focus on healing without the added stress of basic necessities.
If you are able to contribute, please drop off your donated gift cards to our front desk during our normal business hours. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference in the lives of these families as they navigate incredibly difficult circumstances.
Thank you for being a beacon of hope and support. Please consider sharing this post to help us have a wider reach.

Today, we want to express our deepest gratitude to two extraordinary individuals on our team: our dedicated Forensic Interviewers! Their work is at the heart of what we do here at CARE House.

With immense compassion and trauma-informed expertise, they provide a safe, neutral space for children to share their experiences. This crucial first step in a child's healing and justice journey requires incredible sensitivity and skill. They help minimize re-traumatization and ensure every child's voice is heard.

To support children during these sensitive interviews, our team often utilizes calming fidget toys and expressive art materials. These items are vital tools that help children regulate their emotions, communicate non-verbally, and feel a sense of comfort in a challenging situation.

You can directly support their incredible work and provide these essential resources for children! Click the link below to purchase fidget toys and art supplies that will directly benefit the children we serve:
