2019 WCCA Food Security VSA Project - IF
 
 
 
Wright County Community Action is a nonprofit located in Maple Lake, Minnesota that provides resources for those experiencing conditions of poverty in Wright County. Our services range from preventative measures like Head Start and Foreclosure Counseling to crisis response like Energy Assistance and Food Shelf services. The agency's mission is to "work in partnership with the community to empower residents to improve their physical, social and economic wellbeing" and values the relationships we have built with both internal and external stakeholders. Our poverty-fighting efforts have been recognized by the State of Minnesota through the 2018 Promising Practice Award for our Emergency Food Box program. We have close connections to county leadership, local civic organizations, public schools, community nonprofits and grassroots effots, and healthcare providers. Our network is growing rapidly and we want you to be a part of it! This summer project will prove to be fun, productive and fulfilling!
