Formerly known as the Self-Help Network, the Center for Community Support and Research, a part of Wichita State University's psychology department, has helped strengthen individuals, communities, and organizations for more than 20 years. Network staff help communities and nonprofits in three focus areas: Strengthening Organizations, Strengthening Communities; Research and Evaluation; and Self-Help Group Support. Through these focus areas, the SHN provides a number of services to individuals, organizations, and communities including: strategic planning; vision and mission development; grant writing; program evaluation; team building; collaboration; conflict resolution; outcome-based planning and monitoring; evaluation; self-help group referrals; and resource materials for leadership development and self-help group development and maintenance.

That all Kansans use their talents and experiences to create thriving communities.

WSU Center for Community Support & Research partners with communities and organizations to strengthen Kansas through education, leadership development, facilitation, and research.
