Central Coast LINK

The LINK was created in 1998 as a project of the Atascadero Youth Task Force, developed in order to identify available services, assist youth and families to connect with needed services, and to create services to support families. Since then, the LINK has expanded from its original office location in Atascadero, California to two Family Resource Centers with service outreach spanning across the towns of Atascadero, Cambria, Shandon, San Miguel, Creston, Paso Robles, Los Osos, Morro Bay, San Luis Obispo, and Templeton, encompassing a community of approximately 103,000 residents. Today, we are a community leader in child welfare and education services and aim to keep families united while engaging in child abuse prevention.

Our mission is to support children, youth, and families by providing services and linking resources to foster a safe, healthy, and thriving environment.
