A NATIONAL NETWORK CENTERED ON COMMUNITY

Every year, Community Action Agencies around the country help approximately 15 million people.

The essence of community action is service and partnership. The Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 created the Community Action Network as part of President Lyndon B. Johnson’s War on Poverty initiative to fight and end poverty across the nation through a network of local, state, and nationally focused organizations.
