About this program

Southwestern Community Services (SCS), one of New Hampshire’s five community action agencies, has served the needs of Cheshire and Sullivan county citizens for more than 48 years. Our history began in 1965 when President Lyndon Johnson commenced waging his war on poverty. As the battles continue, so do our efforts as advocates for those in need. Southwestern Community Services is a tax-exempt organization under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code. Our vision: SCS seeks to create and support a climate within the communities of southwestern New Hampshire wherein poverty is never accepted as a chronic or permanent condition of any person’s life. Our mission: SCS strives to empower low income people and families. With dignity and respect, SCS will provide direct assistance, reduce stressors, and advocate for such persons and families as they lift themselves toward self-sufficiency. In partnership and in close collaboration with local communities, SCS will provide leadership and support to develop resources, programs, and services to further aid this population.
