Founded in 1991 by Tom Owens, the mission of The Cara Program is to assist the homeless and at-risk populations in their efforts to achieve real and lasting success by providing comprehensive training, permanent job placement and critical support services.

The Cara Program Philosophy

Personal transformation inevitably requires a healthy network of friends and family who can support individuals as they go through the process. And for those who lack positive and productive supporters in their lives, The Cara Program is that support network. It provides comprehensive and personalized services to motivated individuals who are committed to transforming their lives and achieving real, lasting success.
Over the years, many national leaders have recognized The Cara Program as a premier organization that helps the homeless to regain their dignity and become productive members of society.
