A MESSAGE FROM OUR MANAGING DIRECTOR
Carina Rabong
Founder & Managing Director, Care & Venture Disability Support Services
You deserve support from people who know you, respect your choices and understand what matters to you.
Experiences within my own family, growing up in Germany, showed me how much thoughtful, reliable support can mean; for the person receiving it and those close to them. That understanding continues to guide how I lead Care & Venture. Care & Venture grew from my work as an independent disability support worker. As more families approached me than I could support alone, I brought together other workers to provide more consistent support. In 2022, those relationships became Care & Venture.
My belief remains simple: no one should feel like a number. I lead with compassion, clear expectations and accountability, supporting our team to turn that belief into everyday practice. That means listening carefully, maintaining high standards and acting on feedback.
Above all, I want you to feel comfortable being yourself and supported to live life in ways that matter to you. I look forward to getting to know you.
