Social Service - Southeastern Vermont Community Action (SEVCA)

Southeastern Vermont Community Action is an anti-poverty, community based, nonprofit organization serving Windham and Windsor counties since 1965.

Our mission is to work collaboratively to alleviate hardships, foster sustainable self-sufficiency, strengthen our communities, and eliminate the root causes of poverty. SEVCA has a variety of programs and services to meet this end. They include: Head Start, Weatherization, Emergency Services (i.e., fuel/utility assistance, food, and shelter), Crisis Intervention, Parent Education, Micro-Business Development, Individual Development Accounts, and Thrift Stores.

In the community of Hartford we have provided the following services during FY2004:

" Weatherization: 35 homes @ 80,186

" Family Services (outreach): 487 services to 122 families

" Fuel & Utility Assistance: $14,110 in assistance

" Micro Business Development services: 3 individuals @ a cost of $824 ea.

" Individual Development Accounts: 2 individuals

" Head Start: 2 families

" Good Buy Store: thrift store providing good used clothing and furniture at affordable prices, with vouchers for those in need.

Community support, through town funding, helps to build a strong partnership. The combination of federal, state, private and town funds allow us to not only maintain, but to increase and improve service.

We thank the residents of Hartford for their support.
