Why Community Action Agencies Are
Unique
Most poverty-related organizations focus on a specific area of
need, such as job training, health care, housing, or economic
development. Community Action Agencies reach out to low-
income people in their communities, address their multiple needs
through a comprehensive approach, develop partnerships with
other community organizations, involve low-income clients in the
agency’s operations, and administer a full range of coordinated
programs designed to have a measurable impact on poverty.
