National Community Action Month highlights Community Action Agencies’ work helping millions of families and individuals escape poverty and achieve economic stability each year.
“Our goal this month is to highlight the real problems low-income people in Delaware County are facing, especially during these challenging economic times,” said Edward T. Coleman, Chief Executive Officer of CAADC. “People come to CAADC desperate for help because they have experienced so many hardships and have no place else to turn. We show them that they can change their lives and we have a proven track record helping the most vulnerable people achieve economic security.”
Each year Community Action Agencies help over 20 million Americans achieve and maintain financial stability. CAADC is one of the nearly 1,100 Community Action Agencies across the country that are helping low-income people change their lives and embody the spirit of hope.
CAADC, a non-profit corporation, has been Delaware County’s designated anti-poverty agency since 1979. The non-profit agency provides a wide range of services aimed at encouraging self-sufficiency for low-income individuals and helping families facing an economic crisis.
