Mission Statement

The mission of Southeastern Vermont Community Action (SEVCA) is to enable people to cope with, and reduce the hardships of poverty; create sustainable self-sufficiency; and reduce the causes and move toward the elimination of poverty.


Description

SEVCA gives people the knowledge, tools, and support to break the cycle of dependence, and works to find solutions to the deep-seated problems of poverty, largely by empowering and collaborating with those whose lives are affected by it daily.

SEVCA was created in 1965 as a part of the nationwide 'War on Poverty’ and chartered as a Community Action Agency (CAA) - a private non-profit corporation, locally initiated and governed, and designated by local, state and federal officials as the 'anti-poverty agency’ serving Windham and Windsor Counties.
