Help Us Build a Brighter Future for the Children of Haywood County!
This year, with the support of people like you, we were able to reach a goal that we’ve dreamed of for years. The KARE House has moved into our new facility!
Now, we need your help to turn this space into a lasting foundation of hope and healing for children and families in crisis. Unforeseen costs and circumstances have limited our budget for furnishings and new equipment. Your support can ensure every room is fully equipped and welcoming for years to come.

How KARE is Making a Difference
KARE, Haywood County’s Children’s Advocacy Center, offers essential services to children and families affected by abuse and neglect—completely free of charge. Services include:
- Support Services: advocacy and mental health care.
- Forensic Interviews: Helping children share their stories safely.
- Community Collaboration: facilitating a multidisciplinary team to prioritize children’s needs.
- Community Training Programs: programs for children and adults
Our new building allows us to expand these services, ensuring every child receives the care they deserve.
