WCAC Community Programs

WCAC’s many community programs offer help with food stamp applications, free income tax preparation, and mediation of divorce/family issues, consumer/merchant, landlord/tenant, tenant/tenant, small claims, minor criminal, community/neighbor, and employee/employer disputes. Family support activities, such as parent workshops, linkages to needed services, advocating for services, and creating task-forces to address gaps in services are provided through a parent-driven coalition.

Financial Literacy classes and the opportunity to purchase a first home, enroll in college, or start one’s own business are offered through the Individual Development Account program.

AmeriCorps members earn education scholarships and are provided with professional development opportunities while tutoring at-risk elementary students.

Deleading training classes are offered to property owners and their agents to become authorized to perform moderate-risk deleading and understand the Lead Law and its requirements.
