Carey is a way of life. It’s a community of faith on mission in the world. We strive to exemplify our values in everything we do. Carey is a community of like-minded individuals that serve and minister to the community around us and beyond, as part of the ministry of Carey Baptist Church. At Carey we are committed to attempting the extraordinary, not for the sake of it, but because it matters.
Carey operates on two campuses with a Church, College, Jump Early Development Services and Timber Cafe operating on each. Carey has also developed the Carey Right Track Foundation, Avenir Leadership Institute, and Carey Hope, each of which serve both on and well beyond our campuses. Our colleges serve the educational needs of over 2000 students across two campuses (Harrisdale and Forrestdale).
