During this time The River Center continues to support families and our community remotely by phone, video calls and groups, and email. We are checking voicemail and email on a regular basis and responding to you to the best of our ability. If you or someone you know needs connections to community resources, please contact us at 924-6800, info@rivercenter.us or go to www.factbook.rivercenter.us for a listing of resources in the Eastern Monadnock Region. For around the clock support in New Hampshire, call 211. For additional information on new and continuing programs and information, connect with The River Center on FaceBook and Instagram.

All our parenting groups are continuing via Zoom and we have added more. The tax program has been approved by the IRS for remote preparations by our volunteers. Please see our program page for more information on availability, times and registration information.

Our co-locators:

During this time of uncertainty, we urge you to contact those you know who may be isolated, fearful and in need of encouragement or a practical trip to the grocery store. Please reach out by phone, wave at a neighbor on a walk, smile whenever you can. Even while embracing social distancing, we can support each other through this time.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

The River Center

A Family and Community Resource Center

For over 20 years The River Center has been supporting the Eastern Monadnock region. Our programs fill a needed void in the communities we serve. Without The River Center, community members would have to drive to Keene or Antrim for the types of programs we provide – a hardship many would not be able to overcome. We have deep roots in the communities we serve and pride ourselves on being responsive to their changing needs.

Our Mission

Strengthening individuals and families through parenting support, free tax assistance and money coaching, and community connections throughout the towns of the Eastern Monadnock Region.
