The Community Action Advisory Board is comprised of nine members representing a cross section of the community. Board membership includes low-income citizens, elected public officials, and the private sector. The Advisory Board conducts a biennial needs assessment and recommends funding for programs and services provided by community-based organizations that meet identified priority needs. The board makes recommendations for funding programs that address essential human needs and programs that move people towards self-sufficiency. Funding sources include Community Services Block Grant Funds and Human Services Funds, a consolidated City of Vancouver/Clark County Fund.
