Stoughton, Massachusetts
Community Organizations
A town’s safety net is part government and part neighbors who organized. In Stoughton the two work side by side: town agencies run housing, youth services, and the senior center, and community organizations carry the rest. These are the established ones, each with a phone number a resident can call.
