We are the Defenders of Childhood

At CHOC, we are a mighty brigade sworn to protect pillow fights, thumb wrestling and first kisses. By keeping kids healthy, we can help keep the magic of childhood alive and well.

Southern California Living

We know it’s important to have a high quality of life outside of work. Southern California offers that in abundance.

Famous for its warm climate, Southern California averages temperatures of 70 degrees and higher throughout most of the year. With just a handful of rainy days each year, it’s not uncommon to enjoy the winter holidays in warm sunshine. Also, the region boasts unbeatable entertainment, shopping and attractions.

And with the beach, mountains and desert all a short drive away, there is something here for everyone. Child-friendly communities and exciting nightlife mean singles and families alike can enjoy the wonderful lifestyle Southern California has to offer.
