Welcome to Albany Community Action Partnership

Welcome to the Albany Community Action Partnership web site! As our agency grows and changes, we will continue to update albanycap.org to reflect these changes. Please come back often to check our progress.

Albany Community Action Partnership (ACAP) is the federally-designated Community Action Agency for the County of Albany, NY. Read about our Agency Mission and our Vision and Guiding Principles.

ACAP is a non-profit 501(c)3 agency. If you would like to make a tax-deductible contribution to our agency of your time, money, or services, please visit our Donations area, or contact our Administrative Office.

 

The 2010 Census will begin soon. Your participation is important. The information you provide helps ACAP and other community organizations maintain their program funding.

Don't forget to be counted!

 


Our agency offers several different services to assist Albany County residents with some fundamental needs, such as:  quality childcare, food for a meal, and heating assistance for a home. ACAP helps fulfill these basic needs in an effort to help break the cycle of poverty and empower our communities within Albany County.
