Community Action Partnership of Orange County
For more than 56 years, Community Action Partnership of Orange County has addressed the immediate needs of people in crisis, while empowering communities with life-changing programs and services. Year after year, we have grown our vision and expanded our partner network to build resilience, address food insecurity, housing, financial empowerment, and community health.
