Community Offerings

CARE hosts a variety of events and training sessions throughout the year for the UCSC community. Many of these take place during awareness months and are facilitated by CARE’s prevention education team. Other offerings, led by our advocates, provide a space for community members who identify as survivors to come together, share experiences, and feel supported on their healing journey.
