CAP OC changes people's lives, embodies the spirit of hope, and improves Orange County communities! Thus, CAPOC was born.

It all started with an idea, that poverty in all its forms and manifestations is degrading to the individual and represents a clear threat to the continued health and prosperity of our nation. In 1965, community leaders came together to present their idea for providing local residents with the power and tools to grow economic opportunities and solve community problems. CAPOC was instrumental in introducing Orange County to community centers, youth and adult employment programs, food and nutritional programs, senior and disabled transportation, community improvement, utility assistance, weatherization, health services, day care programs, emergency housing, Farm 2 Kids, Farm 2 Families, Headstart, Neighborhood Youth Corps, and Community Mentor Partnership. Over the years, Community Action Partnership of Orange County's' mission has transformed millions of lives. When families work through our programs, they develop greater confidence and motivation to manage setbacks in their lives. At Community Action, the answer lies in empowering people to recognize and make use of their own unique strengths and resources in order to improve their lives.

Harvest hope through a food drive!

This holiday season, bring your team, school, or community together to make a difference for neighbors facing food insecurity. Through our Hope for the Holidays campaign, you can support the OC Food Bank by organizing a physical food drive or launching a virtual fundraiser to help provide food for local families.

🥫 Physical Food Drives: Rally your community to collect nonperishable food items for neighbors in need. Physical food drives are subject to capacity, so reach out early to reserve your preferred dates.

💙 Virtual Food Drives: Create a custom fundraising page and invite your network to give. Every contribution helps fund the purchase and distribution of food throughout Orange County.

Whether you collect cans or rally your network to give, your efforts can help put food on the table for local families this holiday season.

Keeping the lights on shouldn’t mean sacrificing other essentials.

For Tina, a single mother raising five children on a fixed income, rising electricity costs made it increasingly difficult to keep up with household expenses.

Our Utility Assistance Program helped ease that burden, giving Tina more room in her budget for groceries, transportation, and her children’s needs.

“Just as importantly, it gave me peace of mind during a financially difficult time.”

This Energy Awareness Month, we’re highlighting how utility assistance does more than help families pay their bills. It creates breathing room, reduces financial stress, and helps families focus on what comes next.

Your support helps make this possible. Join us in stabilizing, sustaining, and empowering Orange County families today at www.capoc.org/donate.

When groceries get harder to afford, having a reliable source of food can make all the difference.

Through a new partnership with CalOptima, our OC Food Bank is helping eligible Medi-Cal recipients put fresh and shelf-stable foods on the table through the Medi-Cal Temporary Food Box Program, available through February 2027.

For our partner agency, Pathways of Hope, the impact goes beyond the food itself:

“One of the most meaningful parts of the program has been hearing community members share how comforting it is to know they have a resource they can rely on. Families appreciate being able to bring home fresh and pantry items to help supplement their groceries and make their food resources go a little further.”

By working alongside CalOptima and our partner agencies, we’re helping families navigate financial hardship with greater access to nutritious food and support they can count on.

Having your power go out is always stressful. Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) could occur more frequently, last longer, and affect more customers — some of whom may never have experienced PSPS before. If you live in an area frequently impacted by PSPS, you may be eligible for increased incentives for items like portable generators to make sure you keep power in your house. Learn more about rebates, incentives, and trusted devices through SCE's Marketplace: marketplace.sce.com
