OUR MISSION STATEMENT
The Council of Social Agencies of Hampshire County, a network of human service providers and recipients, promotes collaboration and advocacy to improve human services locally.
COSA understands systemic racism and other forms of oppression both drive the need for human services and perpetuate cycles of inequality. COSA prioritizes justice, equity, diversity and inclusion in all its work and strives to center the strengths and needs of Black, Indigenous, People of Color and additional underrepresented communities in the county.
