Introduced
by
To make a number of revisions to the 1981 law which authorizes “community action agencies,” including revisions to requirements for their boards of directors, and certain details of their mission. The bill would activate the Community Action Bureau within state government by requiring it to perform a variety of functions which current law authorizes, but does not require. (The Bureau has not been active for many years.) These functions include, among others, providing assistance to local community action agencies. The bill would add the duty that the Bureau seek additional resources for anti-poverty programs.
