The Basket Food Pantry
The Basket Food Pantry is a program that serves food-insecure families weekly. We distribute food boxes to more than 250 families weekly serving more than 1000 individuals each week. We take time to counsel and pray with each participant on every visit. We have also provided various resources of healing and training, such as counseling, life skills classes, and drug and alcohol abuse programs, etc. When you partner with CareCenter Ministries’ Basket Program you are investing in individuals and families.

ACTS
ACTS focuses on specific apartment complexes in the Pleasant Grove area. Our vision for these families is to provide them with an assortment of programs that will help transform their community. As a result of relationships developed with apartment owners and managers, CareCenter has established a level of trust that has enhanced our effectiveness within these complexes.
Community Center
The CareCenter Community Center provides a nurturing environment for our community where youth can find faith-based activities that seek to promote positive development through relationship, mentorship and discipelship. We seek to empower the youth through services including After-School Program, summer and holiday camps, sports leagues and mentorship curriculum.
Overcomers
Overcomers is a Christ centered 12-step program that began in the mid-1980s when a young man, who was newly clean and sober, wanted to reach out to fellow addicts and show them the freedom he had found in Christ. Since that time, the group has grown into an international ministry that is still reaching those caught in the vise of life controlling issues. Overcomers curriculum is used in the Race and Tree of Life Programs, as well as an outreach resource to individuals in our community.
Freedom Outreach
Freedom Outreach Ministries is committed to fulfilling the mandate of Christ in Matthew 25:36, which says “I was in prison and you came to me.” Discipleship and Life Skill classes are taught weekly at several units. The goal is to help men become the Men of God that Jesus has always intended for them to be. Anointed singing and preaching the truth from the Word of God results in changed lives that God uses while the men are incarcerated and when released from prison.
