Spring arrives not only in the bloom of flowers, but in the renewal of spirit—just as nature shakes off the cold of winter, so too can we shed the weight of old habits. Let this season be a reminder that growth comes with patience, and recovery, like spring, is a process of rebirth and healing. Ask us how we can help you. #oldhabits #nature_lovers

We recently dedicated a room at our Santa Barbara Daniel Bryant and Family Youth Center to Earl Minnis, a longtime supporter of CADA. For nearly ten years, Earl has organized successful fundraising concerts through Earl Minnis Presents, featuring artists like Patti Smith and Chubby Checker. He’s also been a key supporter of events such as the Amethyst Ball, Gratitude Luncheon, and Summit for Danny. Earl's dedication to the Daniel Bryant Youth and Family Center, however, has had the most profound impact, positively influencing the lives of countless youth and families. We're honored to recognize his contributions with this tribute.

Yesterday's 14th Annual Mentor Gratitude Luncheon at El Encanto was an incredible success! A heartfelt thank you to all of our generous sponsors, our amazing mentors and mentees, the dedicated hotel staff, and, of course, our CADA team. This event wouldn’t have been possible without every one of you. A special shout-out to our talented photographer, Isaac, for beautifully capturing these unforgettable moments. Thank you all for making this event truly memorable!

The day has finally arrived! Tomorrow, we will be hosting our 14th Annual Mentor Gratitude Luncheon at the Belmond, El Encanto. We kindly ask our guests to arrive early, as complimentary valet parking will be provided. While the event is sold out, donations are always appreciated and welcome. We look forward to seeing you there! #mentor #cada #gratitude
