Resources

CAST is partnered with many other coalitions and health based organizations in New Hampshire. We understand the need for a reliable and trusted support system which is why we are working collaboratively with many educational and social service agencies to build capacity in Souhegan Valley. Collectively we can increase protective factors in our community and we take pride in our networking efforts. We believe it takes a village to create a healthy community and connect people to the supports they need, we cannot do it alone.

Our team has tried to include a number of organizations that cover a variety of needs. If you don’t find what you are looking for here or would like us to consider putting your organization in our data base please feel free to reach out to us at castteam2018@gmail.com. For more information about resources and trainings feel free to check out our facebook page by searching Community Action for Safe Teens.
