In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson launched the War on Poverty, paving the way for the creation of Community Action Agencies—organizations that continue to uplift millions of families by connecting them to resources, opportunities, and economic stability. Today, Community Action remains at the forefront of tackling poverty, strengthening communities, and ensuring every family has the chance to thrive. As we celebrate President’s Day, we recognize the vision that sparked a movement and the ongoing impact of Community Action Agencies nationwide. ?? What does Community Action mean to you?
