Boulder County Community Action
Program partners to provide opportunities for education,
self-sufficiency, and community involvement for disenfranchised and
low-income people.
About Us
Boulder County Community Action Programs
(CAP) began in 1965 as part of President Lyndon Johnson's "War on
Poverty." Today, CAP continues to advocate for and help organize
programs that foster self-sufficiency for low-income people,
particularly youth, families and people of color. Most recently,
Community Action Programs has focused on Latino parent leadership
training, poverty education, immigration issues, individual development
accounts, and Latino boys' and girls' life skills programs.
Boulder County Community Action Programs
maintains a non-service delivery approach, focusing on community
organizing and advocacy on low income issues. Once solutions are in
place, CAP moves on to other concerns.
