OUR VISION
Healthy families thriving in their community free from poverty and social exclusion. A wide range of opportunities and accessibility to education, healthcare, careers, and safe, affordable, energy efficient housing. Inclusive communities that sustain economic opportunities and business growth. Communities where everyone is treated with dignity and respect and the barriers of structural and systematic inequities have been removed.
THE PROMISE OF COMMUNITY ACTION
Community Action changes people’s lives, embodies the spirit of hope,
improves communities, and makes America a better place to live.
We care about the entire community, and we are dedicated to helping people help themselves and each other.
