About The Cara Program

Cara's mission is to unlock the power and purpose within our communities and ourselves to create real and lasting success. Through its personal and professional skills training and access to employment opportunities Cara serves as a leader of poverty alleviation in Chicago and beyond. Since 1991, we have helped more than 7,500 people find more than 11,500 quality jobs. We help motivated men and women break the barriers of poverty (and often the interrelated challenges of recovery, domestic violence, episodic homelessness, and incarceration) to get and keep good jobs, and more importantly rebuild hope, self-esteem and opportunity for themselves and their families in the process.
