At the Community Action Center (CAC) of Northfield, we are “neighbors helping neighbors.” Our programs – from Creating Homes to Feeding the Hungry – meet the most basic needs of individuals and families who are seeking help.
As a nonprofit organization serving the life-sustaining needs of those in our area, many people rely on the CAC for support as they seek independence.
Our Mission
Our mission is to promote a healthy, caring and just community for all people through resources, advocacy and volunteer effort.
HISTORY
The Community Action Center of Northfield was founded by community leaders who valued serving those around them and believed in the power of service. Their values have stuck with the CAC for nearly five decades.
Serving Those in Need
We have been able to serve over 2,500 people each year. This is thanks to our volunteers, individual donors and foundation grants. Hundreds of children benefit from scholarships and gifts. Families are helped with gas vouchers, housing assistance and groceries. The CAC remains committed to programs such as the Food Shelf, the Clothes Closet, support for youth and services to seniors.
