Access Community Action Agency is designated by our state and federal governments as the anti-poverty agency for Windham and Tolland Counties and serves and supports the low-income population of eastern Connecticut. As a result of the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964, Access was originally incorporated in 1965 as the Windham Area Community Action Program (WACAP). Since its founding, Access has remained committed to its core reason for being: Partnering to Fight Poverty. Today, Access is a private, non-profit corporation with a 501(c)(3) IRS designation providing services through a number of community-based programs. Access has 65 full time and 35 part time employees and operates from six locations: Program hubs in Willimantic and Danielson, our Emergency Shelter in Danielson, Residential Transitional Living program in Norwich, and HUD funded affordable senior housing developments in Franklin and Willington.
