Community Action

Our Mission

Asking for help is hard. At Community Action, we do our best to help our customers feel respected and valued, and to make it easier to get the help needed. We provide personalized attention to each customer, allow families to make the decisions that are right for them, and automatically tell customers everything our agency may be able to do to help.

Our Promise

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.

Keeping That Promise

The Promise of Community Action is important because it reminds us of our mission and core values.  It tells everyone who works with us, who shares their journey out of poverty with us, and who entrusts us with precious resources, that we are SERIOUS about making positive changes and being a reliable community partner.
