Communities Advocating for Resident Empowerment, operating as C.A.R.E., is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit headquartered at 531 Encinitas Boulevard providing comprehensive human services to residents of low- and moderate-income housing communities throughout California. Incorporated in 2007, the organization delivers social services, educational programs, workforce training, and advocacy for children, youth, families, and seniors in subsidized housing developments, coordinating with municipal agencies including Encinitas City Hall on housing-policy implementation and resident-services planning. Programming targets economic independence through job preparation, employment counseling, computer-literacy training, and referral services designed to create replicable, sustainable models of resident empowerment across multiple housing sites. Literacy training and continuing-education resources form a core service tier, connecting housing-community residents to the same publicly funded learning infrastructure maintained at the Encinitas Library. The organization's multi-site service model is governed by a board of directors with specialization in federal tax-credit housing development, public-sector subordinate financing, and California regulatory compliance for low-income housing tax-credit properties.
