Mission

The mission of the Will County Center for Community Concerns is to assist and enable low and moderate income individuals to obtain the opportunities needed to prepare themselves for self-sufficiency. 

History

Will County Center for Community Concerns was established in 1987 to serve as the Community Action Agency of Will County.  It is one of the 36 Community Action agencies which together serve the entire state of Illinois.  Community Action’s goal is to provide opportunities to enable low-income persons to become self-sufficient.
