2023 marks the 59th year since the Community Action Network was established to help American families and communities overcome obstacles to poverty. Over 1000 agencies across the country are working every day to create opportunities and transform the lives of their neighbors, making communities stronger and helping families across the US thrive. Since 1981, CFCAA has been in service helping families throughout Alachua, Levy, & Marion counties.
