The New Millennium

Advocacy and self-sufficiency may be currently the vogue, however, Community Action Programs have had the legal mission to advocate for the poor and help them reach self-sufficiency for more than 40 years. Today, there are approximately 1,000 Community Action Agencies in the United States, serving every community. Community Action Agencies are the pre-eminent community building, human service delivery, and low-income advocacy network in America. In Rhode Island, eight CAP agencies provide social services to almost 182,000 state residents. Every year Providence Community Action assists one third, or 33% of the states total.
