Northside Community Support Program
The Northside Community Support Program (NCSP) helps adults overcome the challenges of mental illness, trauma, COVID, and more. As a free, membership-based program, NCSP’s goal is to make sure people have access to community-based services, therapy, or sometimes just a friendly ear.
NSCP staff work closely with many local community partners to ensure people can connect to emergency food, employment supports, legal assistance, and more.
NCSP members develop long-term relationships with staff and other members, and through this support, they renew their sense of dignity and hope.
