OUR MISSION
Community Action, Inc. of Central Texas (CAI) is a community based not for profit organization that has been in continuous operation since 1965 when it was established as part of this nation’s War On Poverty led by President Lyndon Baines Johnson.
CAI operated its first Head Start program (one of the first in the nation) in the community of Kyle in Hays County in the summer of that year. Since that time it has grown into a large integrated health, education, and human services agency that provides a multitude of services across ten counties in the rural capital area of Texas. It now operates 13 Head Start and Early Head Start centers in Hays and Caldwell counties.
