MACA is excited to announce the 2016 Community Action Advocacy Day that will be held on March 16, 2016 at the State Capitol. 

Our advocacy day will begin with a rally in the morning where we will discuss the five elements of poverty; Food, Health, Education, Energy & Housing, and Family & Economic Security.   We will also announce our legislative priorities that address the needs across Missouri and we will hear motivational testimony from Community Action consumers. 

In an effort to highlight our network’s diverse and innovative approaches to address poverty throughout the state, we would like each agency to set up an exhibit of your programs and services (exhibits will be on the third floor rotunda).

There will also be time to visit your local legislators.  Our legislators want to hear from YOU.  The CAA’s are an important link back to their home districts and they want to know what is important to their constituents.  Please make time to include these visits in your day.
