Community Action seeks Public input for Community Needs Assessment

 

[May 15, 2023] 

Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois’ (CAPCIL) is asking community members within their six-county service area for help.

As a Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) grantee, CAPCIL is required to complete a Community Needs Assessment. The Community Needs Assessment is a comprehensive process to determine needs and resources within the community to lift individuals and families out of poverty and encourage self-sufficiency. They survey customers and community members in hopes of collecting as many responses as possible. The responses help gather meaningful data and help CAPCIL decide how to best use grant funds and shape CSBG work programs.

The community member survey can be completed online by visiting www.capcil.info and scanning the QR code on the pop-up window.

It is the mission of CAPCIL, in partnership with community stakeholders to empower low-income persons and other vulnerable populations of all ages, through the creation and implementation of poverty-fighting initiatives for those in crisis and those who seek a life of lasting independence.

For additional information on programming visit CAPCIL’s Facebook page or by calling CAPCIL’s Corporate Office at 217-732-2159.
