Team Spotlight : Healing with CAARE

This is the Healing with CAARE Team and their respective superpowers: Project Manager, Jay Pendrak (flying), and Project Innovators, Jessica Stanek (telekinesis), Yolanda (teleportation), Yaying Fang (cloning with multitasking capabilities), Sachin Solomon, (Xavier’s powers), Yuejiao Ha (not present). 

The Healing with CAARE team starts each meeting with a “Whip-Around”.  This meeting, the question was “If you could choose, what superpower would you possess?”  (See the team’s answers in the photo caption!) 

The team is helping Healing with CAARE to get its small business incubator off the ground.  The incubator can help small-scale entrepreneurs succeed and in turn provide employment to people served by Healing with CAARE. 

The team is researching best practices, which includes interviewing entrepreneurs and other incubators across the country and in the Durham area.  The end product will be a strategic plan that Healing with CAARE can use when implementing its incubator model.

Healing with CAARE is a non-profit organization serving low-income clients in Downtown Durham. Healing with CAARE does this through a diverse array of programs and services that follow the principles of Mazlo’s Pyramid. Namely, Healing with CAARE’s base-of-the-pyramid services focus on providing food, clothing, shelter, and safety to Healing with CAARE members.
