Cocaine Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from their addiction.
Our Mission is to provide high quality, integrated mental health, addictions and housing services, focusing on individual strengths and recovery.
We Serve a broad spectrum of Clark County residents: the majority are low income, un-or-underinsured individuals seeking treatment for mental health disorders, addictions (or both), and who may also be homeless.
CVAB is building a better community by providing support and advocacy for individual mental health or addictions recovery and encouraging a life of wellness. CVAB is committed to being the community resource for wellness and recovery through programs that include two Self-Help Recovery Centers, a Warm Line, and the Empowerment, Education and Employment clubhouse program center.

Friends of the Carpenter is a woodworking ministry that reaches out to the homeless. Christ calls us to minister with all in need of safe haven by being a caring fellowship and providing a sense of purpose through interaction with people of faith.
Friends of the Carpenter provides a ministry of Christian faith, friendship and safety for all people, with special concern for the homeless and/or unemployed. Through the assembly of simple woodcraft, people experience hope and self esteem as they build caring friendships in the community of Christ. At woodwork assembly events, volunteers from the church community visit with the homeless in a safe activity, where the product is actually the relationship being built, not the woodwork item.
