About Caris

Caris Pregnancy Counseling & Resources is an apolitical, faith-based nonprofit organization and a beacon of light in the Chicagoland region. We are a grace-filled professional counseling agency empowering women with valuable resources and various communities of support. Our mission is to see women and children thrive during and after unplanned pregnancy.

Our approach is unique: we serve by grace with love no matter what decision is made. We provide professional counseling to address pregnancy-related issues, support groups, and workshops. All services are donor-supported and, as a result, are free to the women and families we serve.

Who We Are

Christ-Centered: We are Christ Followers living on a mission, seeking to be innovative, contemplative, and Christ-honoring in all that we do.
A Safe Haven: We are a source of support and serenity, providing a safe place for processing unplanned pregnancy-related concerns regardless of the woman's decision.
Grace-Filled & Non-Judgmental: Women are not shamed or judged when they come through our doors.
Nimble & Adaptable: We recognize that one size doesn’t always fit all and we remain flexible in our approach to service.
Apolitical: We do not engage in political arguments, debates, or marches.
Long-Term Partners: We are not the "end of the road"; we aim to walk alongside women and children through their journey.

Who We Are Looking For

We seek team members who exemplify a committed and consistent walk of faith and a personal call to ministry.

The ideal candidate is:

Spiritually Aligned: A Christ Follower in alignment with the Caris mission, vision, statement of faith, and statement of principle.
Socially Conscious: Someone who understands how issues of race, class, and societal injustices play a role in a woman’s pregnancy decision.
A Servant Leader: Someone who is flexible, teachable, takes initiative, and is capable of decisive action.
