Advancing CT Together

Advancing CT Together (ACT) improves opportunity and prosperity for Connecticut's children and families by shaping policies and programs that significantly and measurably reduce poverty and promote a secure future.

ACT assists providers and community leaders in linking lower-income families to existing support programs and services. Efforts are directed at families under 200 percent of the federal poverty level.

Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program (VITA) provides free income tax preparation for low-wage workers who earn less than $54,000 a year.
