Union-Snyder Community Action Agency Union-Snyder CAA is a member of a nationwide network of Community Action Agencies

Union-Snyder CAA is dedicated to improving our community by helping individuals and families living in low income reach self-sufficiency. We accomplish this by providing services in five components:

- Community Services: Services available to low income families and individuals through Community Services include Housing Assistance, Energy Assistance, Transportation Assistance, Food Referrals, and more.

- Veterans Affairs: Union-Snyder CAA is the home of the Snyder County Veterans Affairs Office, which assists veterans, widows, and dependent children in obtaining benefits that are available from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

- CORE Susquehanna AmeriCorps: Union-Snyder CAA administers the local branch of the national AmeriCorps service program. Members commit to a term of service at a local nonprofit organization in exchange for benefits like education support.

- Community Outreach: Union-Snyder CAA works in partnership with local organizations and communities to alleviate the causes and impacts of poverty in Union and Snyder Counties through programs like Strengths-Based Family Worker Credentials & Leadership Certificate, Poverty Simulations, The Linen Closet (TLC) Donation Collection, VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance), and an annual Family Service Conference each spring.

We want to say THANK YOU for making this year’s BEET Hunger 5K such an incredible success! 80 of you laced up your sneakers to race and even more came out to support the event as volunteers, cheerleaders, partners, and sponsors. The Hunger Coalition works year-round to end food insecurity in the Valley, and this event supports that work directly. We can’t say how grateful we are for people like you who make our community what it is!

A special thanks to our sponsors, WellSpan Health, Service 1st FCU, Orontes Yogurt, and Geisinger, to our friends from Bucknell University, CSO | Central Susquehanna Opportunities, Central Pennsylvania Food Bank, and so many others for their support, and to The Miller Center for hosting us!

We can’t wait to see you again next year 👟🤍🥕
