Three Rivers Community Action - Hiawathaland Transit

Three Rivers Community Action is a nonprofit human service organization created by local citizens and incorporated in 1966. Three Rivers Community Action serves primarily low-income families. However, it also serves the community at large by creating a healthier environment for all citizens regardless of economic status. The agency serves people in a variety of ways: homeownership, keeping them warm and sheltered, employing them, healing them, educating them, transporting them, feeding them and involving them.

In the professional community of human services, Three Rivers Community Action plays an important role. Three Rivers advocates for our clients at the local, state and federal levels. The agency has developed a comprehensive networking system with various human service agencies in order to best serve our clients. These collaborative relationships allow agencies to maximize their resources to serve families and communities. Three Rivers is an agent of change within the community, paving the way for understanding and acceptance.

Our broadest impact is on the people we serve. We fulfill dreams of homeownership for single parent, handicapped and diverse families. We keep seniors in their homes with Home Delivered Meals, public transportation and energy assistance. Through the Head Start program, we provide school readiness for children and a variety of services for the entire family. We strive to serve people better wherever they are in life, from homelessness to homeownership, and everywhere in between.
