Community Progress Council

Community Progress Council, York County’s community action agency, empowers individuals and families to move toward self-sufficiency and advocates for change to promote community growth.

At Community Progress Council (CPC), we help low-income families to identify their strengths and achieve their goals, moving beyond crisis and working toward economic self-sufficiency. Lucia shares how her coach and the services provided by CPC gave her the tools and resources to make progress — not just for a moment, but for life.

Community Progress Council empowers people to move toward self-sufficiency. Be a part of Progress and make a gift to support this work as part of Give Local York on May 4 and 5, 2023!

Your investment in Community Progress Council make

Your investment in Community Progress Council makes a direct impact for our shared future.

The cost of public supports for a family of four with two young children until they reach adulthood is $555,142. That includes annual SNAP, TANF, housing and childcare subsidies for a family of four including one infant and one 3-year-old, until both children are 18 years old.

When we empower even just one family to move themselves out of poverty, we can change the trajectory for families and save taxpayer dollars to reinvest elsewhere in our community.

Progress toward self-sufficiency requires comprehe

Progress toward self-sufficiency requires comprehensive, integrated services.

We had an impactful morning with the @sgschoolnews middle school team last week, as we hosted a poverty simulation as part of their in-service day. Poverty simulations are an interactive, immersive way to demonstrate the importance of our community working together to address the challenges of poverty.

After navigating through daily tasks that many of us take for granted, we had a great discussion about the realities of poverty, its impact on students inside and outside the classroom, and how educators can shift their mindset to play a role in breaking the cycle of poverty.

Assistant Principal Phalon Mallory shared, "The simulation offered a new perspective on what students face today, increased, awareness to the different resources available, and helped our team gain new ideas of how this new perspective can impact instructional practices and continued school supports."

Thank you to Spring Grove for hosting us!
