Most of the families we serve are facing the challenges of raising children - from struggling with behavior issues at home to dealing with the loss of a loved one or early experimentation with alcohol or other drugs. Our children and teens come from all walks of life, with all income levels, family structures and stressors.
Our programs are creative, affordable and effective! Grants through the state, United Way, City of Nashua, Hillsborough County and private foundations, along with donations from the community, allow us to offer sliding scale fees for some services and keep costs low for others. We partner with many local organizations, schools and police departments to be sure that area youth are benefiting from the best services possible.
We are proud to have been recognized locally and nationally for our commitment to excellence and look forward to the opportunity to serve your family.
