Community Success Story

Melissa Madera, born and raised in Worcester, became a mother at age 15. She lived at home with her single mom and sister--her dad had passed away when she was 8 years

old, and was able to graduate with high honors from South High Community School in 1998.

Welcome to WCAC

Our mission is to stimulate change in the fundamental causes of poverty and to create and provide opportunities for economic self-sufficiency through services, partnership, and advocacy.

The Worcester Community Action Council was started in 1965 as the locally designated "community action" agency for the Economic Opportunity Act. Today, we serve as an umbrella agency for 21 education and social service programs.
