Celebrating Juneteenth
Today, we celebrate Juneteenth - the day that slavery was finally ended in the United States. Throughout the last two years, we've continued to witness change in our community toward greater equality and inclusion, and CAPTAIN CHS remains commited to those efforts today, and every day of the year.
Our offices are closed today in honor of Juneteenth and we hope that you'll take a moment to learn more about its history and impact by clicking below.

Every day, more and more seniors contact Care Links looking for help. They’re in need of transportation, help with errands, and often, like Joseph, just someone to talk to.
Will you be there for Joseph and the seniors in our community by donating to Care Links and enabling seniors to age joyfully, and safely, in their own homes?
