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.
From the Desk of CEO, Shelia Triplett
None of us a few months ago could have imagined the world we’re living in today. A pandemic that has killed hundreds of thousands of people across the world and is still the number one health crisis in America. COVID-19 has changed how we interact socially, crippled our economy, exposed the inequities in our healthcare system and changed forever our belief that something of this magnitude could ever happen here.
