Faces of Progress
in our community
Our community’s momentum is only as strong as the support we provide. At Community Progress Council, our programs and services support individuals and families faced with the challenges of poverty to advance to self-sufficiency through guidance, resources, and connections that empower self-confidence and perseverance.
