Western Community Action

Western Community Action opened its doors on July 29, 1965, the same year that Martin Luther King delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech at the March for Jobs and Freedom in Washington, D.C. Mirroring what was happening at the National and State Levels, WCA became a local testing ground for anti-poverty initiatives and started dreaming its own dream of helping people, changing lives, and eliminating poverty in Lincoln, Lyon, Redwood, Jackson and Cottonwood counties in southwest Minnesota.
