Description
Chicks in Crisis started in the garage of our founder, Inez Whitlow, in 1997. She set out too decrease the number of babies entering the foster care system and being abandoned by helping pregnant teens obtain medical care, counseling, and other resources needed to make responsible choices. Chicks in Crisis has saved infant and children in the Sacramento region from abandonment, foster care, human sex trafficking, abuse, and even death, by providing programs and services that make a difference and impact the lives of those in need.
