Our Story

We are a private, 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation governed by elected officials, community leaders and target area representatives. Throughout our history, we have administered a wide range of social service and economic opportunity programs benefiting many. We have an annual operating budget of over $14 million and a staff of more than 200.
Who We Serve

Working cooperatively with other agencies, we are an advocate for those who might not otherwise have a voice in the community. We are dedicated to providing services to help those in need achieve a better, more productive life.
