Center for Supportive Communities
Center for Supportive Communities (CSC), an organization dedicated to using behavior science to create equal opportunities and meaningful change for the 2024-25 school year. We need reliable, motivated, and compassionate adults to work directly with K-12 students in our SupportED program, a community-based program for public-school students and their families and a training site for young professionals seeking hands-on clinical experience, career exploration, and professional networking opportunities. Infuse evidence based interventions into communities and work alongside families, schools, and the top human service and legal agencies in Kansas to keep our young people out of court and on track toward success.
