Central Oklahoma Community Action Agency

Central Oklahoma Community Action Agency helps low-income individuals and families avoid crisis situations in two ways; meeting emergency needs first, then helping families gain self-sufficiency through supportive case management and partnerships with other social service providers. The Community Action movement dates back to 1964 as part of the Federal Economic Opportunity Act. Community Action Agencies are locally managed with a volunteer board of directors that includes low-income people, public officials, and representatives from the community sector
