Thank you to all of our + 6000 Community Action staff and board members in MA who dedicate every day to serving, innovating, inspiring and changing lives. We are grateful to work with and for you.

May is Community Action Month. In Massachusetts, Community Action Agencies help operate Head Start® & Early Head Start, childcare, out of school programs, and more. All to help children get the education and care they will need to build productive lives. Learn more at CommunityActionMA.org

Today, we pause to honor and remember the brave individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Their courage and dedication will never be forgotten. Community Action is here to serve everyone including veterans and the families of those who have served.

Anthony was struggling personally and academically and fell behind in high school. Anthony found a second chance at YouthBuild Community Teamwork, Inc. where he earned his HiSET, gained industry-recognized construction certifications, completed meaningful community service, and developed valuable life skills. With YouthBuild’s support, he transitioned from part-time work to a full-time position with the City of Lowell DPW, earned his Class A CDL, and is now thriving in a stable, rewarding career. Anthony’s success is a powerful example of how YouthBuild empowers young people to reach their full potential and the impact Community Action Agencies have!
