Alabama continues to prioritize support for families facing economic hardship through renewed federal and state investments in anti-poverty programs, including the Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) program.
These critical funds allow Alabama’s 18 Community Action Agencies to provide housing stabilization services, workforce training, emergency assistance, senior services, and financial literacy programs across the state.
As economic pressures persist — from rising housing costs to increased utility expenses — CSBG funding ensures local agencies can respond directly to the needs of communities in both rural and urban areas.
Community Action Agencies serve as trusted frontline partners, delivering wraparound services that address both immediate needs and long-term economic mobility.
CAAAlabama remains committed to advocating for sustained funding and policies that strengthen pathways to self-sufficiency for Alabama families.
