COMMUNITY ACTION PIONEER VALLEY

Community Action Pioneer Valley assists people who have low incomes to achieve economic stability and security, and works to build communities in which all people have the opportunity to thrive. • We see people as the experts on their own lives, as individuals and families who have strengths and dreams, and who also experience barriers to their success. • We honor everyone's right to live with dignity and to be treated with respect and appreciation for diversity. • We partner with individuals and families to develop the resources, skills, social connection, and resilience to be economically secure and successful according to their own values and hopes. • We partner with families and communities to grow raise strong and healthy children and youth. • We value workplace practices based on mutual respect, inclusion, transparency, and leadership development for all staff. • We believe that engaging people with low incomes in decision-making and the overall direction of the agency is essential to our integrity and success. • We are committed to participating in community development that assures that all people are housed, well-fed, warm, safe, and stable. • We value building collaborative partnerships to find community-based solutions to meet community needs.
