ACTION IN COMMUNITY THROUGH SERVICE

HOPE. RELIEF. SELF-SUFFICIENCY

With their highly trained staff and volunteers, Action in Community Through Service (ACTS) strives to provide the best service to their clients. They provide hope, relief, and promote self-sufficiency for area residents in crisis. ACTS offers opportunities for your to volunteer or partner with them so that you too can make a positive impact in our community.

SERVICES
