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.
We serve low-income individuals and families through a combination of assistance, encouragement, and incentives to become self-sufficient. From Head Start and other education programs, to adult employment and training, to food and rental assistance – we provide solutions economically disadvantaged people need to survive.
