Community Action makes a difference!

Our mission is to help those in need living in New York’s Capital Region. Our programs empower people to rise out of poverty by their own strength and hard work. We offer the tools needed to become self sufficient, changing the community one life at a time.

How can we help you?

Our programs, which are designed to meet the ever-changing needs of our community, fall under five core service areas:

• Early Childhood Education
• Employment and Financial Education
• Family and Education Support
• Healthy Homes
• Health and Wellness

Don’t know where to start? Contact our Community Cares Specialist at  (518) 272-6012 Ext. 302
