The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) is a consumer advocacy organization whose twin missions are to conduct innovative research and advocacy programs in health and nutrition, and to provide consumers with current, useful information about their health and well-being. In general, CSPI's three main goals are: To provide useful, objective information to the public and policymakers and to conduct research on food, alcohol, health, the environment, and other issues related to science and technology; To represent the citizen's interests before regulatory, judicial and legislative bodies on food, alcohol, health, the environment, and other issues; and To ensure that science and technology are used for the public good and to encourage scientists to engage in public-interest activities.

We serve low-income individuals and families in every Mercer County municipality through Housing Stability and Homelessness Prevention, Hunger Prevention and Nutrition Education, and Employment Readiness including Driver's License Assistance.

For more than 40 years, Neighbors In Need has been dedicated to significantly reducing hunger and food insecurity and to providing people in need in Greater Lawrence increased access to basic necessities, with dignity, respect, and privacy. We seek to engage the community and to provide opportunities to serve, for both donors and volunteers. Each week, we offer several mobile market food pantries strategically located within the neighborhoods where our clients live. We provide healthy and nutritious non-perishable foods, fresh produce, and other essential supplies to anyone experiencing hunger or hardship. Our small staff is the framework within which we engage a vast network of volunteers to help us nimbly respond to evolving community needs.
