2013 Annual Report

About Community Action ommunity Action Agencies (CAAs) work to alleviate poverty and empower low-income families in their communities. For over 45 years, CAAs have provided the tools to help people move from poverty to self-sufficiency.

The Community Action Agency Network is made up of more than 1,100 local, private, non-profit and public agencies, created through the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964. The Ohio Association of Community Action Agencies represents Ohio’s 50 agencies serving the needs of low-income people in all of Ohio’s 88 counties. CAAs provide services to more than 15 million low-income people annually in 99 percent of the nation’s counties. Among them are 4 million children. In 2012, Ohio’s Community Action Agencies served more than 800,000 low-income individuals, among them over 325,000 children. There is no “typical” CAA. No two CAAs are exactly alike because each is governed by the leadership and specific needs of its local community. But despite this fact, there is a typical CAA approach to fighting the causes of poverty. Local agencies approach these goals by offering a variety of programs that serve low-income children, families and seniors. They coordinate emergency assistance, provide weatherization services, sponsor youth programs, operate senior centers and provide transportation in rural areas. CAAs provide linkages to job training opportunities, GED preparation courses, and vocational education programs. They provide a range of services addressing poverty-related problems ‑ from income management and credit counseling to entrepreneurial development and small business incubators; from domestic violence crisis assistance to family development programs and parenting classes; from food pantries and emergency shelters to low-income housing development and community revitalization projects.

This report will focus on five program categories: • • • • •

ach of Ohio’s 50 Community Action Agencies is different. They offer local people meeting the local needs of their community through a variety of training, services and assistance programs that help people move from poverty to self-sufficiency. We like to say that Community Action Agencies don’t offer a hand-out, but a hand-up. They help people help themselves. It is our hope that this annual report will help demonstrate the real work that is being done by Community Action Agencies throughout Ohio. In 2012, Community Action Agencies served 804,237 low-income individuals, 325,280 families, 326,170 children. By helping these people, CAAs have not only made a substantial impact on their lives, but have also benefitted their communities. Community Action Agencies have been helping low-income people and their communities for almost 50 years. We have the knowledge, resources and flexibility to meet the needs of our communities and help everyone prosper. We hope that this annual report demonstrates that. Sincerely, Philip E. Cole

Housing Success Story

ayne was unemployed and looking for a job. His wife Candace was working two jobs to help the family get by. The couple desperately wanted to stay in their home with their two children, but when one of Candace’s jobs was eliminated and her hours were reduced at the other job, the couple turned to the Community Action Partnership of the Greater Dayton Area (CAP) for help. The couple had already made an agreement with their lender that allowed them to lower their monthly payment. This was only a short-term solution though, as their arrearage would continue to increase. CAP Housing Counselor Kevin Foreman helped the couple apply for the Restoring Stability Program, a mortgage assistance program. Wayne and Candace worked hard to do whatever was required to get the assistance they needed to keep their home. “They always got the required documents to me in a timely, orderly fashion,” Mr. Foreman said. The couple qualified for six months of mortgage payment assistance and rescue payment assistance to help them catch up on their arrearage. After doing a financial worksheet with Mr. Foreman, the couple was able to come up with the funds they needed to qualify for the matching assistance. A slight glitch resulted when they realized they needed to send a cashier’s check instead of a money order to Columbus. Fearing that they would miss the deadline, Wayne took the time to drive the payment to Columbus himself. All of the necessary forms were completed on time and the family began receiving assistance. Candace began working fulltime and Wayne continues to look for employment. But a large weight has been lifted from their shoulders and the family will be able to keep their home during this difficult time thanks to the help of Community Action.

Employment Barrier Success Story

andra had come from a broken home. She dropped out of school in the ninth grade, had an addictive lifestyle, had served time in prison, and was living on the streets. But thanks to Community Action, she completed her education, has a home and a great job where she says, “I am living my dream and it feels great!” While applying for an assistance program, Sandra heard a speaker talk about IMPACT Community Action Agency’s program Support of Self-Sufficiency (S.O.S.). This case management program helps participants create and meet goals to achieve selfsufficiency. Sandra says of the speaker, “I knew he was talking just to me. I needed a plan to get myself together. With help from my family development specialist (or case manager) at IMPACT, I was able to create an Individual Service Plan to reduce my barriers to self-sufficiency and pursue my dreams of education, housing, life-skills and having a support system.” Through meetings with her case manager, Sandra set a goal of becoming a heavy equipment operator. To do so she needed to meet certain educational requirements and acquire various certifications. To help with that goal, she enrolled in IMPACT’s ReEntry Program, which helps ex-offenders reintegrate into society, and a Workforce Development program. With financial assistance through the programs at IMPACT in Franklin County, Sandra was able to get her GED, and she attended the necessary classes to receive her heavy equipment operators license. “I was the only African-American female in my class and I scored 100 percent on every test I took,” Sandra said. IMPACT also helped Sandra recover her driver’s license after 15 years, and paid for her union dues. “I was partnered with everyone who could help me become successful,” she stated. Sandra was able to secure a job with an apartment complex that included her housing, so she was no longer homeless, but that wasn’t enough for her. She continued to pursue her dreams, progressing through her career, and now has a job with Wright Patterson Air Force Base making $35 an hour! “My family development specialist continued to help me stay focused on my dream,” Sandra explained. “To me, ‘Support of Self-Sufficiency’ means that people don’t give up on you - they empower you. It takes time and effort and help from all kinds of places to reduce your barriers. Now I live my dream every day and I will never wear anything other than my bright pink hard hat. IMPACT made me a survivor!”

Health Success Story

uan, a 66 year old Lake County resident who lives with his daughter’s family is an insulin-dependent diabetic without medical insurance. His family must absorb the financial responsibility of his medical care. Juan turned to Lifeline for the Empowerment and Development of Consumers, the Lake County Community Action Agency, for assistance with his diabetic needs. His required insulin was over $500 a month and was an economic and emotional strain on his family. “I worry a lot about him, about how we will manage his health,” his daughter Rosie explained. During his appointment with the health services coordinator, Juan learned about the Eye Care Assistance Program that Lifeline also offered. He had not had an eye exam in many years and worried about damage to his eyes from his diabetic condition. At the conclusion of the appointment, Juan had a voucher to receive his insulin, as well as an exam scheduled with an eye doctor. “I worry less because of the programs from Lifeline,” Rosie said. “I can focus on my kids knowing that my dad has help. We rely on Lifeline’s health programs for my dad.” Juan is working to maintain his health with the help of his family. He is better able to manage his diabetes by taking his insulin as prescribed and has been receiving the needed follow-up care for his eyes through Lifeline’s partnership with Prevent Blindness Ohio.

Income Management Success Story

hen Betty Jo first came to Supports to Encourage Low-income Families (SELF), the designated Community Action Agency for Butler County, she was a struggling single mother who was working full-time. She had been taken advantage of by others and she seriously doubted her ability to succeed. Betty Jo enrolled in SELF’s Individual Development Account (IDA) program in order to save money to fulfill her dream of being a first-time home buyer. She also wanted to go back to college to finish her degree in Botany. While enrolled in SELF’s IDA program, Betty Jo learned how to budget through their seven-week money management course. They also connected her with first-time home buyer counseling and worked with her to improve her credit. After just one year of being enrolled in SELF’s IDA program, Betty Jo went back to college, raised her credit score by 100 points and will soon fulfill her dream of being a first-time home buyer. Betty Jo maintained high grades in college while working two part-time jobs and diligently saving money each month to buy a house. Through the IDA program, her savings will be matched 2:1 by SELF when she makes a down payment on a home. Although Betty Jo has achieved so much in such a short time, the most noticeable transformation has come from her new found self-confidence. SELF provided the tools and support; Betty Jo worked hard to implement the plan.

n 2007, the State of Ohio issued a Layoff Aversion grant to prevent the Glatfelter manufacturing plant, one of the largest employers in Southern Ohio, from laying off over 250 of their 1,500 employees, impacting Adams, Brown, Pike, Ross and Scioto counties. With this grant funding, Pike County Community Action Committee assembled a Regional Rapid Response Team, which included representatives from the Workforce Investment Board, the Governor’s Regional Economic Development Office, Ohio University, county governments, and area training specialists. The purpose of the Regional Rapid Response Team was to swiftly begin retraining and upgrading the skills of Glatfelter’s workforce. The efforts of the Rapid Response Team not only prevented a major layoff, but also expanded Glatfelter’s services into a new forestry initiative, creating 25 additional employment positions. These jobs provided wages and benefits ranging from $28.76$34.34 per hour. The increase in employment and preservation of wages in the surrounding communities has resulted in a return on investment of 125.5% to the local economy. This program was designed to retain a major employer in the area. Not only was the program successful, it also expanded business, which provides multiple additional benefits through increased employment opportunities and business stability.
