SCAR is an experienced organization that is dedicated to supporting organizers and activists at all levels. We participate in and support dozens of actions, protests, and events annually to ensure they are safe, impactful, and well attended.

Through our Community Action Support Team (C.A.S.T.), we’re formalizing our efforts to provide deeper, more comprehensive support to community-led events and actions.

We offer tools, resources, space, and opportunities to make your action as effective as possible. From technical support—like cameras, livestreaming, sound systems, and DJs—to logistical guidance, safety consulting, and promotional assistance, our team is here to help your vision come to life.

Whether you’re planning a march, vigil, press conference, teach-in, or pop-up, fill out our support request form and you’ll hear back from us within 2 business days.
