Adverse Childhood Experiences Response Team (ACERT)

The Adverse Childhood Experiences Response Team (ACERT) is a collaborative initiative to address the impacts of adverse childhood experiences. Through a comprehensive referral mechanism, ACERT connects families and their children with
trauma-informed mental health services and social supports in Manchester. This initiative is a partnership between Amoskeag Health, the Manchester Police Department, and YWCA-NH, working in unison to provide assistance to families and children who have recently encountered police involvement.

Mission Statement: ACERT is dedicated to mitigating the adverse effects of childhood trauma by facilitating access to specialized services and community-based support for affected families and their children.

If you are an agency working with families or children, and the families we work with benefit from your services, please don’t hesitate to contact us!

Being healthy is so important to enable learning and building a positive and engaging community.

Basic Needs Volunteers

Basic Needs

Basic needs are defined as something that we must have in order to live. Recognizing that our students cannot thrive when they may be worried about basic necessities, this section provides resources across the community where essential services and supports can be found.

Early Childhood

Early childhood education not only prepares our youngest students to be in school, but also supports the development of a child’s social and emotional skills.

BOASTS & BOOSTS

Thank you so much for Manchester Proud’s promotion of our Youth Advisory Board opportunity. We received some excellent applicants and one of your posts actually led to a potential volunteer. Sometimes social media is amazing

Being a member of the Partnership Network Work Group since it was founded and seeing the evolution of our partnerships growing has been rewarding. We are working to assure that there are equitable and accessible partnership opportunities through a consistent,clear process and expectations for all partners. This work is enabling Manchester to have sustainable, community driven programming to increase support and opportunities, while improving student outcomes. At the same time we are communicating with teachers, students, families and the community at large about our partners and resources through Compass.

Boys & Girls Club of Manchester strongly support the efforts of Manchester Proud. Manchester’s schools are our shared responsibility as a community. Manchester Proud is our city’s first truly community-wide movement to engage us all in creating a vision of what we want our kids to know and be able to do, then, guided by that vision, designing a plan for what our schools should be. We’re proud to be strong supporters!
Diane Fitzpatrick, CEO, Boys and Girls Club of Manchester
We feel so blessed! Raising our grandsons is wonderful, but they cost an arm and a leg. It has been so helpful to receive financial aid to send them to the Club. We are so grateful.

I can’t say enough how much I appreciate [the Boys & Girls Club of Manchester and] your program.
Club Parent (Boys & Girls Club of Manchester)
My daughter loves it here [at the Boys & Girls Club of Manchester]. I literally wouldn’t have an income [and be able to work] if it wasn’t for you. Thank you so much for all you do!
