The CARE Center annual ball, “Brave Ball” will be held Saturday, April 1, 2017 the Skirvin Hilton Hotel in downtown Oklahoma City. This is a special evening for friends and supporters of the CARE Center to discover the miracles our children experience when referred to the CARE Center. Our children have experienced abuse and are involved in an active investigation. Brave Ball celebrates their ongoing healing. The 2017 Brave Ball will feature amazing cuisine, prize pulls with incredible trips, jewelry, wine and other fun items, a Kendra Scott Jewelry Pull, a live auction, entertainment, and an afterhours party overlooking the beautiful Oklahoma City skyline. Come help continue a tradition that heals.

When children come to The CARE Center, their innocence has been taken away by the heartbreaking act of abuse. Money raised from Brave Ball will help support our services of forensic interview, medical exams, counseling, and family support. Each of these are critical tools in helping children find hope and healing after abuse. Our children are brave. We simply help them reveal their courage and live a life not defined by their circumstances.
