OUR MISSION

The Community Action Program Corporation is a non-profit community based organization that serves both Washington and Morgan County, Ohio. The current Executive Director of Washington-Morgan Community Action is David Brightbill.

It is the product of over 40 years of caring. In the 1960s, community leaders began meeting to assess local needs and determine a way to meet them. The Community Action Program of Washington-Morgan Counties was incorporated in 1967 and Anthony Mele, founding executive director, obtained funding for a family service center and outreach program, the first family planning program in the state of Ohio, and a full-year Head Start program. With these funds, Washington-Morgan Community Action began its long-standing commitment to the underserved individuals and families living in both counties.
