A space for vulnerable youth to come for support.
Our Mission
Our mission is to create an experience that reaffirms an individual's dignity and worth. We seek to extend unconditional love to vulnerable youth in Orange and Los Angeles counties.
Who We Serve
We are honored to serve juniors and seniors preparing for their prom by providing gowns, shoes, and accessories to make their special night memorable. At CCOC, we welcome and treat each person with love and equality. If someone dreams of wearing a beautiful dress to their school dance, we’re here to help.
Please note we exclusively offer dresses and related items, we are not a resource for students seeking suits or other formal attire.
Why We Serve
We believe dignity and inclusion are essential to building a supportive community. We uplift through grace, affirming inherent worth and beauty. Many of the individuals we serve have faced judgment, rejection, or a lack of love in their lives. We counter those experiences by fostering an atmosphere of compassion and acceptance. We create a safe, welcoming space at our events where every person feels welcome, seen, and loved.
Experiencing Our Events
When attendees join one of our spring events, they’re in for a day filled with joy! From the moment they arrive, they’re greeted by our welcoming hospitality team, who offer drinks and light snacks to begin their experience. But the true magic begins when their name is called by their personal shopper. Our personal shoppers are there to encourage and ensure each individual feels loved and valued.
Each guest explores an incredible selection of treasures: thousands of beautiful gowns, hundreds of sparkling shoes, and dazzling accessories. Our team ensures the process is effortless and enjoyable. If a dress needs a small adjustment, on-site alterations are available to ensure the perfect fit.
The care and attention continue after the outfit is chosen. Guests return to the hospitality area to enjoy sweet treats while their selections are steamed and carefully packaged. To add an extra touch of magic, they leave with surprise goodie bag.
