about us

We serve as a collaborative force that encourages and supports local action, empowers community-led initiatives, and helps build long-term capacity for progress across Washington County and beyond.

Our Mission

The Community Action Coalition exists to create a permanent, inclusive space for civic engagement, advocacy, and community support in Washington County. We bring together individuals and organizations committed to equity, progress, and collective action - offering a safe, welcoming environment where all voices can be heard and empowered.

Our Vision

We envision a thriving, connected community where progressive organizing, mutual aid, environmental responsibility, and human rights advocacy have a lasting home. By housing diverse groups under one roof - activists, volunteers, and support networks - the Community Action Coalition will serve as a launchpad for meaningful change, a hub for collaboration, and a beacon of safety and belonging for generations to come. Our vision includes a community rooted in diversity, equity, inclusion, and sustainability - where all individuals are empowered to participate and lead.
