About Us

For over 60 years, we have provided people with the tools they need to move from poverty to self-sufficiency; removing obstacles to independence and by doing so, changing lives.

Our Mission allows us to address the needs of the poor specific to Mercer County and to provide the unique solutions which each situation demands.

Community Action Agencies not only address the economic issues of poverty, but provide emotional and non-economic support as well.

We are proud to be a part of the community and the national and state network of Community Action Agencies.
