Comprehensive Community Action Program, Inc.

Comprehensive Community Action Program, Inc. CCAP is one of Rhode Island’s largest organizations dedicated solely to fighting the war on poverty.

Our professional staff provides a wide spectrum of services designed to help those in immediate need and empower anyone desiring to become independent. In 1964, President Johnson declared a “War on Poverty” by creating the Economic Opportunity Act. This act created Community Action Agencies who were charged with a mission to mobilize all resources toward the elimination of poverty and provide help

to those in need. In December of 1965, Cranston Community Action Program was incorporated. At that time CCAP served Cranston, Coventry, Scituate and Foster. As many of our programs grew to include cities and towns outside that catchment area, we decided to change our name. In September of 1994 we officially became Comprehensive Community Action, but still CCAP. CCAP's Family Health Services does not deny access to services due to an inability to pay and offers a sliding fee scale based on family size and income. Los Servicios de Salud Familiar de CCAP no niegan el acceso a los servicios debido a la incapacidad de pagar y ofrecen una escala de tarifas ajustable basada en el tamaño de la familia y los ingresos.

Summer months usually bring fun, sun, and so much more. But for too many, they bring missed meals, without the help of school meals.

We are grateful we can deliver these Breakfast Kits to help hundreds of kiddos start their day off right. Special thanks to our friends at CCAP for helping us get them into the hands of those who need them the most. 💛
