Our mission is to provide
leadership in addressing issues that relate to older 
Virginians, to develop community-based systems of care that provide services 
that support independence within South Central Virginia’s interdependent society 
and which protect the quality of life of older adults, and to promote citizen 
involvement in the planning and delivery of service. 
Caring Arms Will Support (CAWS), a tax-exempt 501 c 3 non-profit organization, was founded in 2010 by Cheryl Ann 
Wilson-Sprinkle to develop a system of care and support for adults 45 and older 
to lead independent and dignified lives for as long as possible. CAWS is based 
on a caring, supportive and team-driven approach that is committed to identifying 
services and meeting unmet needs. Through coordination, collaboration, volunteers and partnerships CAWS Inc.
works to develop new services, enhance existing programs, 
and pursue funding resources that help to enhance or create new senior 
focused programs. 
CAWS Ten Year Vision Statement:
The long-term vision of Caring Arms Will Support is to provide a holistic one-stop senior center in South Central Virginia. Through coordination of services and collaboration with existing human service, governmental and businesses the senior will receive services that will meet the needs of the whole being. 
1.Workforce Development: Seniors will be provided with employment and training skills services in order to help them prepare to re-enter or remain in the workforce. Seniors will be provided with on-the-job training, job shadowing, small business workshops, computer training, resume writing, application completion and interviewing training. 
2. Activity Center: Seniors will be provided with a fully functional activity center. The center will boast of having a heated swimming pool, sauna, hot tub, activity room, yoga and Tai Chi classes, a reading room, audio visual room, nutritional cooking classes, crafts as well as games.  
3.Respite Care: Seniors who are care-givers will be able to utilize the services at the center to rest, relax and take care of their well-being.   
4.Transportation: Providing seniors with the autonomy and freedom that is often lost when they are no longer able to drive is the goal. By contracting with CAWS the senior will be able to receive consistent, clean and reliable chauffeured transportation services.
