Collaborative Agencies
KARE collaborates with several agencies so our clients will have access to many of the various agencies serving our area. Any client can schedule an appointment with any of our collaborative agencies either by calling us at 803-475-4173, or by speaking with one of our client service counselors. Below you'll find some of those agencies, as well as when they are on hand at KARE.
Welvista provides access to medications and limited dental services to the under-served people in South Carolina.
Hospice Care of South Carolina was created to make a difference, a difference in every life touched by an advanced illness – patients and family members.
Carolina Community Actions (CCA) was created to expand educational opportunities, eliminate poverty, provide health and financial assistance to the elderly, and increase assistance for the poor and unemployed.
South Carolina Vocational Rehabilitation Department provides an individualized array of services to help people with disabilities find employment.
SC Works is a statewide career center system with 56 local centers staffed by professionals who provide employment services for job seekers. SC Works has representatives at KARE the first and second Mondays of each month from 8:30am-1pm.
Community Partners
We have partnerships with several local agencies as well as area schools, churches, and civic groups. With their invaluable support, we are able to assist our friends and neighbors in times of need. Below, you'll find just a few of those invaluable partners.
Community Collaborations
KARE played an integral part in the Town of Kershaw becoming a Heart and Soul Community. The original grant, awarded in 2017, funded a two year process of interviewing residents within the 29067 zip code to learn what matters most. The result was this Community Collaborative Action plan (click here to view) which will guide the future of the Kershaw community.
