Serving Chatham, Durham, Granville, Harnett, Johnston, Lee, Sampson, and Wake counties
Formerly known as the Harnett Family Life Center/CareNet of Harnett, we are a compassionate, spiritually-integrated and community-based care organization affiliated with Wake Forest Baptist Health. As one of eight regions in the CareNet Counseling family, our three clinics are committed to improving the mental health of our region and the counties we serve, including: Harnett, Johnston, Lee, Sampson and Wake counties.
We are supported in our mission by a highly-engaged advisory board of prominent religious, business and professional leaders with one driving goal – making sure everyone in our community has access to our counseling services and educational programs regardless of their ability to pay.
