Eastern Bank has supported MASSCAP with grants for years.
As the national membership organization for state CSBG lead agencies, the National Association for State Community Services Programs (NASCSP) is charged with advocating and enhancing the leadership role of states in preventing and reducing poverty.
The National Community Action Foundation (NCAF) seeks to represent the funding and policy interests of Community Action agencies and their state and regional associations in Washington, D.C. by ensuring the federal government honors its commitment to fighting poverty through support of the Community Action Program.
